Zimbabwe will upgrade two vocational training facilities and rename them after President Emmerson Mnangagwa and the late Vice President Joshua Nkomo. Youth Empowerment Minister Tino Machakaire announced the changes on Monday at a ministry workshop in Bulawayo. The Igava center in Mashonaland East Province will bear Mnangagwa's full name, while the Maphisa facility in Matabeleland South Province will honor Nkomo.

Both sites will add National Youth Service training wings to align educational programs. The government approved plans to build additional vocational centers nationwide as part of presidential initiatives. Officials also secured access to system funds for the facilities through the Office of the President and Cabinet.

Authorities said the rebranding preserves national history and recognizes the contributions of founding leaders. Graduates from the youth service program will receive priority consideration for jobs across government sectors. The ministry aims to expand vocational training opportunities as part of its strategic plan through 2030.
