ZANU PF has begun preparations for its annual National People’s Conference to be held at the end of the month in the Midlands Province.
The National People’s Conference, which comes after the ruling party’s victory in the August 23 elections, is held on rotational basis and presents a chance for reflection on party electoral promises as well as reaffirmation of the country’s vision.
Last year’s conference was held in Bindura, Mashonaland Central Province.
In an interview yesterday, Zanu PF National Political Commissar Dr Mike Bimha said they were now busy preparing for the event slated for October 27 and 28 at the Zanu PF Convention Centre in Gweru.
“We are still working on the numbers and composition of attendance. These are the preliminary meetings,” said Cde Bimha.
“We will be meeting various committees in Gweru today to plan, our national chairperson Cde Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri will preside over the meeting”.
Recommendations from the meeting would be taken forward to the Politburo and the Presidium for finality.
The National People’s Conference will be presided over by the Zanu PF First Secretary and President Cde Mnangagwa and will be attended by delegates from all provinces.
The Bindura conference was held under the theme, “Growing and Modernising the Economy towards Vision 2030”.
The Conference discussed among other things, the state of the party, state of the economy, food security and nutrition, social services and poverty eradication, macroeconomic stability and re-engagement, infrastructure development and utilities as well as value addition and beneficiation.
