President Mnangagwa to Present Government Performance Report at ZANU PF Conference

President Emmerson Mnangagwa, the ZANU PF First Secretary, is set to present a comprehensive Government performance report at the ongoing ZANU PF National People’s Conference in Mutare.

The annual conference provides a crucial platform for party members to review national progress, assess policy implementation, and measure how effectively the Government entrusted by ZANU PF to govern has advanced the country’s development agenda.

Addressing the media in Harare yesterday, ZANU PF spokesperson Ambassador Chris Mutsvangwa described the gathering as an important accountability mechanism that allows party members to evaluate achievements and challenges over the past year.

“This annual conference is essentially a review process between congresses,” said Ambassador Mutsvangwa.

“It gives our members an opportunity to question what has been done during the year as we work towards fulfilling our covenant with the people of Zimbabwe. The President will present a detailed outline of the Government’s work and progress.”

Ambassador Mutsvangwa emphasized that while ZANU PF empowers the Government to administer on its behalf, the party retains oversight to ensure effective service delivery and adherence to electoral commitments.

“ZANU PF doesn’t govern in place of the Government, but we have a supervisory role over ministers and agencies tasked with implementing policies that meet the aspirations of the people,” he said.
“Our mission is clear — to ensure every Zimbabwean enjoys a better quality of life.”

He added that the party remains conscious of its responsibility to maintain public trust through tangible results.

“ZANU PF takes its mandate from the people very seriously. If we fail to deliver, we lose that mandate. That’s why these conferences are critical — they keep us accountable and focused on national progress,” said Ambassador Mutsvangwa.

The Mutare conference is expected to attract between 2,000 and 3,000 delegates from across all provinces, representing various party structures including provincial, district, branch, and cell levels.

“Our party is structured from the grassroots upwards,” Mutsvangwa noted.
“That tradition stems from our liberation struggle when we had to build strong community-based structures to challenge colonial domination.”

He also highlighted renewed optimism within ZANU PF ranks, pointing to positive developments from recent Central Committee and Politburo meetings.

“Reports from the Central Committee and Politburo show that the governance framework is generating hope,” he said.
“The hope that once seemed lost before 2017 has been restored. There’s a growing confidence and can-do spirit among Zimbabweans.”

Ambassador Mutsvangwa concluded by reaffirming the party’s commitment to democratic principles, saying ZANU PF continues to respect the will of the people and strives to ensure that governance remains people-centered.
