“We take pride in our home-grown solutions both product and services. We have innovation hubs in our colleges, and this is the reason we have contained strikes. Our people should benefit from our country’s rich mineral resources and supporting small scale miners,” he said.

“Zanu PF is scaling up the distribution of inputs, irrigation development and additionally we are determined and sure that in the next five years the majority of our country’s villages will have solar-powered boreholes.”

He added that his administration had carried out various development projects, including improving the country’s major highways.

Mnangagwa also presented a thin-paged central committee report and an amended Zanu PF constitution.

Addressing the same gathering, Chiwenga said the party was not tolerating factionalism.

“We don’t want factionalism in the party, whatsoever,” he said.
