The Children of Zimbabwe Liberation War Veterans Association (CZLWVA) has called for unity and discipline among its members as it intensifies efforts to contribute to national development in line with President Mnangagwa’s Vision 2030.
Speaking during a Mashonaland East Provincial Coordinating Committee meeting in Marondera on recently, CZLWVA Chairperson Phinious Makombe rallied the children of freedom fighters to guard against divisions and infiltration, while actively participating in nation-building initiatives.
“I urge you all to work together for the association and safeguard it against infiltrators. Let’s all shun divisions and have unity of purpose in order to contribute to President Mnangagwa’s Vision 2030 of leaving no one and no place behind,” said Makombe.
He also updated attendees on the recently launched Children of War Veterans Fund noting that preparations for disbursements were progressing well beginning with structures at grassroots level.
CZLWVA advisor and Mudzi West legislator, Knowledge Kaitano echoed the call for discipline and urged members to take up leadership roles within the ruling ZANU-PF party.
“As children of the war veterans, I urge you all to be disciplined all the time. Let’s set examples in our society where drug and substance abuse has caused more misery among the youth. Let’s go out and preach the dangers of drug and substance use,” Kaitano said.
He added: “I encourage you to take up positions in our party ZANU PF in order to carry forward our parents’ wishes and aspirations.”
The meeting brought together CZLWVA leadership from all nine administrative districts of Mashonaland East Province as the association continues to mobilise towards strengthening its national footprint and preserving the legacy of Zimbabwe’s liberation struggle.
