ZANU-PF wrapped up the year feeling pretty good about itself, with President Mnangagwa and the party brass talking up what they called big wins on infrastructure, membership growth, and keeping everyone in line. The ruling party pushed hard on dams, power projects, and housing schemes while running a massive cleanup of its grassroots cells and pulling in enough new members to hit over four million people. They also held their 22nd National People's Conference in Mutare, where they doubled down on Vision 2030 and backed extending Mnangagwa's term to see it through.
The whole vibe was about linking modern development to their liberation movement roots and showing they're still the most organized political machine around. Party leaders kept hammering home the need for discipline, unity, and following the chain of command to avoid factional drama.
Between the recruitment push, the ideological training ramp-up, and all the symbolic events celebrating sovereignty and anti-sanctions stuff, ZANU-PF made it clear they think they've got serious momentum heading into the next phase.
