As Zimbabwe’s ruling party ZanuPF is now gearing for the 21st Annual People’s Conference at the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair Grounds in Bulawayo from October 22 to 27, the party’s Harare Province has urged the current Head of State, President Dr Emerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa to continue at the helm of both party and country.
This follows Zanu PF Harare Province provincial inter-district conference held yesterday to come up with draft resolutions that will be presented to the party leadership at the annual conference in the City of Kings, Bulawayo.
Zanu PF Harare provincial chairman Godwills Masimirembwa revealed this whilst addressing the party faithful at their Headquarters yesterday.
Masimirembwa said the most critical resolution which came out of the provincial inter-district conference was that the province was “united in that President Mnangagwa should continue to lead the country beyond 2028”.
“The most critical issue which comes is that the Constitution of Zimbabwe must be amended to enable him to continue to lead beyond 2028,” he said.
According to the Zanu Pf provincial Chairman one of the key draft resolutions made was to request relevant authorities to make necessary constitutional amendments to allow President Mnangagwa to continue with his work.
“We are aware that there are constitutional limitations; first of all, it says the President serves for a maximum of two terms of five years each. There is that window of extending the number of years for each term, or tentatively we can remove the term limit from two terms to three terms or scrap the term limit altogether.”
