ZANU-PF officials say 250,000 opposition supporters have switched parties through the Dzokai Kumusha program. Blessing Chebundo from the ruling party's Commissariat department told new members in Harare that defectors cite economic progress under President Emmerson Mnangagwa as their reason for joining. He pointed to infrastructure projects and currency stability as evidence of national development.

President Mnangagwa plans to meet with 5,000 former opposition members on November 12 to discuss their integration into the party's structures. Provincial commissar Voyage Dambuza instructed zone leaders to expand recruitment efforts across the capital. The party gained seats in recent elections that previously belonged to rival organizations.

Officials stated that some returnees played a key role in establishing the Movement for Democratic Change in 1999. Party leaders asked former opponents to coordinate with existing local committees. Chebundo stated that authorities will continue to accept defectors who recognize the government's achievements in agriculture and power generation.
