Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa praised strong ties with Mozambique during a speech to local government officials. He spoke at the All-Councillors meeting after returning from Mozambique's 50th independence celebration. The president said both countries remain like family members because of shared history during liberation wars. Mozambique helped Zimbabwe's freedom fighters battle the colonial government led by Ian Smith. Leaders from both nations continue working together on trade deals and security matters.

Mnangagwa urged Zimbabweans to copy Mozambique's development success since gaining independence from Portugal. Mozambique built thousands of schools and health clinics after starting with just 10 schools at independence. The ruling Frelimo party led major improvements across the country over five decades. Zimbabwe should measure its own progress from independence to present day. Such tracking helps leaders plan better projects for citizens.

The president stressed that national unity drives development forward faster than division does. He warned against creating chaos and said every person plays an important role. Peace must guide all community discussions and decisions. Mozambican President Daniel Chapo expressed strong support for Zimbabwe during recent talks. Both leaders celebrated their nations' friendship that began during struggles against white minority rule.
