Legislators should to use the Fourth Session of the 10th Parliament to intensify development efforts that will meaningfully transform the lives of ordinary people across all sectors of the economy, President Emmerson Mnangagwa has said.
The President said this while delivering the 2026 State of the Nation Address (SONA) and officially opening the Fourth Session of the 10th Parliament at the new Parliament Building in Mt Hampden this afternoon.
“The journey continues. Much work lies ahead. Let us leverage this Fourth Session of the 10th Parliament to reaffirm our commitment to scale up transformational results in all sectors of the economy and levels of society.”

The President assured members of the Legislature that his Administration remains committed to creating an enabling environment that is transparent, responsive and predictable.
“The Legislature is assured that my Administration shall continue to facilitate an environment that is responsive to current realities, yet predictable and transparent,” he said.
President Mnangagwa added that Government remains determined to ensure that national wealth translates into sustainable prosperity for all Zimbabweans.
“The bold decisions of my Government to guarantee that our country’s wealth delivers sustainable prosperity for all, and development that leaves no one and no place behind, are here to stay,” he said.
“I call upon all of us – the elected leaders of our nation, along with players across sectors of the economy, entrepreneurs, women, young people, Chiefs, traditional leaders and communities at large – to confidently march on, shoulder-to-shoulder, towards realising the Zimbabwe we all want and deserve,” he said.
He also outlined several Bills that will be considered during the session, cutting across different areas of the economy and aimed at aligning key laws with the national Constitution.
