Zimbabwe: Ruling party approves keeping Mnangagwa at its helm

At its 23rd annual national conference in Chinhoyi, Zimbabwe’s ruling ZANU-PF named President Emmerson Mnangagwa as its sole candidate. The party postponed its elective congress from 2027 to 2029 and called for faster implementation of its resolutions as it pursues national development goals for 2030. Mnangagwa said the party remained united despite internal differences and urged a shift from promises and resolutions to results.
