Mushininga Leads Anti-Drug Presidential Ball Games in Harare

ZANU PF’s Secretary for Mines, Energy and Chairman of Sports and Recreation, Tarusenga Mushininga, will this weekend lead the ZANU PF Harare Province Youth League in hosting the Presidential Ball Games, an event dedicated to fighting drug and substance abuse among young people.

The tournament, set for Friday, August 23, at Lewisam Primary School in Chisipite, will run from 8AM to 6PM under the theme “Say No to Drug Abuse.”

“This Presidential Ball Games initiative is meant to provide opportunities for the youth so that they focus more on education and sports, and stay away from drugs.

We will continue fighting against drugs and substances together with the police and other government officials,” said Mushininga.

The games will feature netball competitions, drawing teams from Zone 1 through Zone 6, in a bid to encourage discipline, healthy lifestyles, and empowerment through sport.

Senior government officials are expected to attend as Guests of Honour, among them Minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Jenfan Muswere.

Speaking ahead of the event, organisers stressed that sport remains a vital tool for uniting communities and keeping the youth away from drugs and harmful activities.
