NEW: President meets Zim nationals in Azerbaijan

Kuda Bwititi in Baku, Azerbaijan

President Mnangagwa has met Zimbabwean nationals living in Azerbaijan as he continues to interact with the diaspora community as part of his mantra of leaving no one and no place behind.

The President met the Zimbabwean citizens at his hotel in Baku, Azerbaijan, ahead of the COP29 climate change conference that will officially open tomorrow.

Under the Second Republic, President Mnangagwa has prioritised engagement with the diaspora community so that they can share skills, knowledge, and expertise acquired abroad to contribute in the development of this country.

Diaspora remittances have become a significant part of the economy, as Zimbabweans living abroad send over US$1 billion back home annually.
