THE determination and zeal that brought about Zimbabwe’s independence should inspire the country’s efforts towards the attainment of Vision 2030, President Mnangagwa has said. Zimbabwe will be celebrating its 44th independence anniversary in exactly a month from today. The national celebrations will be held in Murambinda, Manicaland Province, as the Second Republic continues to decentralise national events in pursuit of leaving no one and no place behind. This year’s Independence Day commemorations will be held under the theme, “Zim@44: Unity, peace and development towards Vision 2030”. In his remarks at State House last Friday during the announcement of the 2023 performance evaluation results and the signing ceremony of 2024 performance contracts for Cabinet ministers and heads of public sector agencies, President Mnangagwa said there was a need for everyone to accelerate efforts towards the attainment of the national vision of an empowered upper middle income society. “This year’s ceremony is occurring a few weeks before our country celebrates our 44th Independence Day commemorations, which will be held in Murambinda, Manicaland Province,” said President Mnangagwa. “May the spirit, determination and zeal that brought about our independence, sovereignty, freedom, peace and development continue to inspire us as public officials. “There is a need to accelerate the attainment of Vision 2030 targets. Innovation, industrialisation, entrepreneurship, job creation, modernisation of institutions and systems, rural development as well as improved livelihoods, among other socio-economic activities, must be scaled up.” President Mnangagwa said Government would continue to strengthen its devolution and decentralisation agenda, which has helped transform key infrastructure across the country.
