16.9.2024


20:55

Constitutional
amendments
are
possible
worldwide,
and
Zimbabwe’s
Second
Republic
may
follow
suit
to
meet
its
expectations,
according
to
Zanu
PF
Secretary
for
National
Security,
Lovemore
Matuke.
Speaking
at
a
recent
Zanu
PF
Midlands
Provincial
Coordinating
Committee
meeting,
Matuke
emphasized
that
Zimbabwe’s
Constitution
was
“not
cast
in
stone,”
suggesting
the
possibility
of
changes
to
suit
the
country’s
evolving
needs.

Matuke’s
comments
come
amid
growing
calls
within
Zanu
PF
for
President
Emmerson
Mnangagwa
to
extend
his
term
beyond
its
scheduled
end
in
2028.
Party
members
argue
that
Mnangagwa’s
leadership
has
led
to
significant
infrastructure
development,
advancements
in
agriculture,
mining,
and
innovation
in
tertiary
institutions.
These
supporters
believe
extending
his
term
is
essential
for
the
full
realization
of
Vision
2030,
a
plan
to
transform
Zimbabwe
into
an
upper-middle-income
country.
