Several war veterans in Zimbabwe have expressed disappointment over what they describe as ongoing neglect by President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government and the ZANU-PF party. Members of the Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association from Harare and Manicaland provinces said they face poverty, unfulfilled promises, and unpaid school fees for their children. Many veterans reported that their children have dropped out of school or are unable to access university transcripts because of tuition arrears.

Veterans accused War Veterans Minister Monica Mavhunga and ZANU-PF War Veterans League Secretary Douglas Mahiya of failing to improve the welfare of veterans. Some criticized efforts to extend Mnangagwa’s term to 2030, saying it is unacceptable while the welfare of liberation fighters remains ignored. The veterans stated they would not support extending Mnangagwa’s presidency unless their concerns are addressed. War Veterans Minister Mavhunga did not respond to requests for comment, and Mahiya declined to comment.
