The Zanu PF leadership in Harare wants businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei to join their Central Committee. The Central Committee serves as the party's top decision-making body when Congress isn't meeting. It handles implementing policies and directives passed by the larger group.
Tagwirei stands out as a heavyweight business player with investments sprawling across energy, mining, transportation, construction, and agriculture. He founded and runs Sakunda Holdings Group, a major petroleum company that has steadily expanded its reach across Zimbabwe's economic landscape.
During a provincial meeting, Godwills Masimirembwa explained that party members recommended Tagwirei for membership. They view him as a strategic thinker who could boost the party's economic potential. Masimirembwa called Tagwirei an essential force capable of driving economic prosperity for Zanu PF.
The provincial leadership unanimously supports his co-option. Deputy secretary Andy Mhlanga emphasized Tagwirei's longstanding financial support for the party. Youth chairman Emmanuel Mahachi praised Tagwirei's resource mobilization skills and welcomed his potential guidance.
Beyond Tagwirei's recommendation, the meeting also appointed Voyage Dambuza as the new Harare province Political Commissar. Masimirembwa additionally noted the meeting proceeded smoothly, with most Zimbabweans ignoring protest calls from Blessed Geza, a former party member.
The province reaffirmed its commitment to President Mnangagwa's vision of transforming Zimbabwe into an upper-middle-income economy by 2030.
