Commander in Chief of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces, President Mnangagwa has said the Zimbabwe Defence Forces remain the country’s shield against adversaries from detractors and former colonisers.
He made the remarks this morning while presiding over the graduation of Joint Command and Staff Course number 36 at the Zimbabwe Staff College.
“We recognise and remain proud that the Zimbabwe Defence Forces continue to excel as guarantors of peace and security in line with the constitution,” he said.
“As the Zimbabwe Defence Forces you remain the epitome of our resistance to the neo-colonial onslaught and machinations by erstwhile detractors and former colonisers.”
President Mnangagwa said the inclusion of academic programmes in the ZDF education and training is a welcome development.
He said the ZDF should remain alive to developments in the economy as the nation gears towards attaining an Upper Middle Income Economy status by the year 2030 and how these will impact peace and security architecture.
