Gwanda East District Zanu-PF political commissar, Cde Takura Nyoni, yesterday said people were excited about the President’s visit.
“The morale in the streets is very high in this town. People are very much hopeful and excited to meet their President and icon Cde RG Mugabe. As youths we have mobilised our colleagues that we throng Pelandaba Stadium in big numbers. No one will remain home on this important day,” said Cde Nyoni.
