Zimbabwe brought in outside experts to check how well top officials and Cabinet ministers did their jobs. In 2021, the government started making ministers, permanent secretaries, local leaders, and public company bosses sign performance contracts. This plan aimed to speed up Vision 2030's goal of creating a modern, prosperous, and industrial country within five years.
Officials are evaluated every three months, every six months, and yearly. The government hired an independent consulting company to ensure the process stayed fair and focused on results. After each year ends, evaluators create a full report for President ED Mnangagwa and his entire Cabinet. This report shows what each department accomplished and ranks officials from best to worst performers.
The government celebrated top officials during a ceremony at State House in Harare. Transport Minister Felix Mhona was ranked as the best-performing minister. Agriculture Minister Anxious Masuka took second place, and Public Service Minister July Moyo earned third place. These three received trophies at the ceremony. Women Affairs Minister Monica Mutsvangwa came in fourth, followed by Foreign Affairs Minister Amon Murwira in fifth, though neither got a trophy during the event.
The government recognized five other ministers for excellent work in specific areas. The Tourism Ministry helped the tourism sector grow fast, adding 15 percent to the national economy. They hosted the first Regional African Gastronomy Forum and ran cooking competitions across provinces. They also promoted tourism at major international events like the World Travel Market and International Tourism Trade Fair in Berlin.
The Justice Ministry launched a program for title deeds and settlement regulations. It expanded court facilities to more areas and digitized registration systems for companies, deeds, and intellectual property. The Education Ministry reached the highest O-Level pass rate since 1984 and created strict measures to stop exam paper leaks. It worked with private groups, communities, churches, and civil society organizations to build more schools.
The Mining Ministry kept Zimbabwe's mining sector growing by 2.3 percent despite global challenges. Mineral exports hit $5.34 billion, beating the $4 billion target. Even with lower international prices, Zimbabwe avoided major problems like the mine closures that happened in other countries. The nation attracted new investments, including the Palm River Mining Project.
The Home Affairs Ministry modernized the Civil Registry Office and made services easier to access by expanding to district levels. As part of its electronic government system, it developed an integrated smart traffic management system, among other initiatives.
