Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 30519, member: 2262"] The ruling party's Harare branch wants businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei to join Zanu PF's Central Committee. This group helps run things when Congress isn't meeting by implementing all the policies and decisions that Congress makes. Tagwirei stands out as one of Zimbabwe's top business leaders. He has many companies across the energy, mining, transportation, building, and farming sectors. He started the big fuel company Sakunda Holdings Group and has grown his businesses into major parts of the economy over time. Godwills Masimirembwa, who heads the Zanu PF Harare Provincial office, told everyone at yesterday's meeting that Central Committee members from Harare suggested Tagwirei should join their national leadership team. "Tagwirei belongs to our party in Harare. He knows how to plan business moves well," Masimirembwa said. Masimirembwa believes Tagwirei's smart business thinking will greatly help the party. He called Tagwirei "an essential force who will lead us into a new age of economic success." The group fully backed this idea and plans to send their recommendation to Secretary General Obert Mpofu. Masimirembwa also said that President Mnangagwa asked them to hold separate meetings - one for money matters and another for political issues. Andy Mhlanga, who serves as deputy secretary for Economic Development, mentioned that Tagwirei has helped fund the party for years, making this the right time for him to step into leadership. Youth chairman Emmanuel Mahachi praised this move, saying Tagwirei has helped gather resources for the party. "We feel happy that Tagwirei will advise about growing the party. He always shows up when the party needs help. We back his addition to our highest leadership group," Mahachi said. The meeting also appointed Voyage Dambuza the new Political Commissar for Harare, replacing Kudakwashe Damson, who returns to regular membership. Masimirembwa reported that the meeting ran smoothly, with most Zimbabweans ignoring calls for street protests from runaway former member Blessed Geza. The province fully supports President Mnangagwa's leadership as he works toward Vision 2030, which aims to make Zimbabwe an upper-middle-income country. [/QUOTE]
