Economic Empowerment

It's been long before I communicated with you.I am continuing on our program to empower the people of Zimbabwe.We have had successful launches of Community Trusts and there is greater awareness among our people and especially the youth.
We are own liberators . Companies have to respect our laws,it's not about elections but it's about fighting poverty and improving the well being of our people.
The youths of our country have a duty to build the country.We are faced with serious challenges and at times serious let downs.However our commitment to succeed will help us overcome all the barriers.
Let's continue marching,we will prevail. I am following with keen interest developments that will change our youths and make them the builders of Zimbabwe. Let's shun all negative behavior and engage peacefully.
