ZANU PF Harare provincial chairman Cde Godwills Masimirembwa says collaborative efforts and solidarity among members are essential for the party’s growth.
In a recent interview, he said unity of purpose among party structures within the province will keep them a strong force.
“In previous years, the metropolitan province was notorious for internal discord and a high level of indiscipline, which has seen a number of senior members being expelled and suspended for various reasons,” he said.
“It is crucial to emphasise that our success as a province stems from our teamwork. We have united across all levels — our branches, districts, DCCs, the province, and the National Central Committee.
“Together, we are committed to achieving a common goal.”
Cde Masimirembwa said in Harare, the Government is formalising land ownership, particularly through the Presidential Title Deeds Programme.
“ZANU PF Harare province also pushed for urban title deeds for long-term occupants, aiming to transform land into economic assets and boost investor confidence.
“Residents in Epworth and Harare South are some of the beneficiaries of the Presidential Title Deeds scheme,” he said.
Government is also working towards the regularisation of unregistered settlements.
Turning to the party structure, Cde Masimirembwa said they are rolling out empowerment programmes within the province, targeting women and youth.
“We are rolling out empowerment programmes to party structures, particularly youth and women, to lure them to join the party.
“We have introduced the fishers of men strategy targeting first-time voters. The response is very positive; people are coming to our programmes in their numbers,” he said.
Cde Masimirembwa also noted that they are attracting members from opposition ranks.
Harare province used to be an opposition stronghold, but with the developmental trajectory taking place across the country, many are now defecting to ZANU PF.
They are excited about the developments occurring in various sectors of the economy.
“In the 2023 harmonised elections, we secured four parliamentary seats and additional council seats. Following the by-elections, we now hold seven parliamentary seats,” Cde Masimirembwa said.
