Zimbabwe finishes last-minute preparations for its main Independence Day event happening Friday in Nembudziya, Gokwe. Government officials promise high-quality celebrations that will benefit locals long after visitors leave. This marks the fourth year of moving the national ceremony away from Harare, following past events in Bulawayo, Mt Darwin, and Murambinda. The stadium nears completion, with the football field at 90 percent ready. Bathroom facilities, seating areas, and access roads are almost finished.
The area received major upgrades, including a stadium that can host Division One football games. Local hospitals saw renovations, including new VIP sections and mortuary facilities. School improvements include fresh hostels, classrooms, science labs, and better administration buildings. Workers drilled three boreholes with water tanks for better supply. Officials arranged 369 buses to bring people from across the country.
Festivities begin on April 17 with the Children's Party at Nyamuroro High School, where President Mnangagwa will entertain 3,000 kids. The night before the main celebration, an Independence Gala will take place. The president will speak at Nembudziya Growth Point, followed by a football match between Simba Bhora and FC Platinum. Local businesses will provide materials during construction, creating jobs for community members.
