PRESIDENT Mnangagwa has urged Zimbabweans to be inspired by the cause of the heroes and heroines who died fighting for the liberation of the country to relentlessly work for the realisation of Vision 2030.
Vision 2030 of an upper middle class economy is driven by the philosophy of “Nyika Inovakwa neVene Wayo.”
Addressing mourners at the burial of national heroine, retired Vice Air Marshal Wininie Cabby Mandeya at the National Heroes Acre, this morning, President Mnangagwa said the rich liberation history, and the embodiment of numerous re-collections of the lives of our heroes and heroines, beginning at the family to the national level, should be a source of motivation and inspiration to fuel the realisation of Vision 2030.
“Fellow mourners, comrades and friends, the lives of the heroes and heroines interred here at the National Shrine, as well as throughout the Provincial and District Heroes Acres, are epitaphs of consistent and persistent dedication to the national interests and cause of our motherland, Zimbabwe. I challenge the nation as a whole, to use these solemn occasions to introspect and reflect on our individual, collective and generational roles we must play, for the Zimbabwe of tomorrow, “President Mnangagwa said.
He said this yester- year generation of cadres, liberation war-time fighting force and nationalists, which the country sadly continue to lose, had a dream of a free and independent Zimbabwe.
“They relentlessly pursued this dream, against all odds and in spite of the seemingly technically superior enemy, in the mould of the racist Rhodesian settler regime and its allies,” he said.
“Pauri, zvivhunze kuti urikushandira nyika yekwedu here? Mabasa ako arikusimudzira Zimbabwe here? Zvaurikutaura, zvirikuvaka Nyika yekwedu here, kana kuti kwete?” -@muponderichard
