ZANU PF Grows Member Base in Key Province.
The ruling party in Zimbabwe keeps growing. ZANU PF counted 732,900 members in Mashonaland East last year. The party checks its lists each year to track who stays and who joins.
Recent votes brought mixed news. The party lost two seats to CCC rivals in Ruwa and Marondera. But ZANU PF won big in local races, taking 196 out of 230 spots.
"Let's work as one team," said Daniel Garwe, who leads the party in the east. He praised President Mnangagwa for helping poor areas grow rich.
The numbers tell the story. Rural areas have 3,107 small groups with 621,400 people, and towns have 2,230 groups with 111,500 members.
Lincoln Matare runs party work in the east. He thinks people like what they see. New dams bring water to towns like Marondera and Chivhu, and more dams rise at Kunzvi and Mada.
The party wants more members. "Good plans bring support," Matare said. He called the president "the best leader." Party teams watch how each area grows under new projects.
ZANU PF plans to win back the seats it lost. "We'll keep winning until we own the east again," Matare said. His teams check each ward to ensure the plans work.
The growth shows faith in the party's path. Leaders say better roads and water prove they can improve lives. They think more wins will come as they help more towns grow.
