President Emmerson Mnangagwa has said the government will create pathways for sustainable economic growth while protecting citizens from economic sabotage and greed-driven actions.
Addressing the 378th Ordinary Session of the ZANU PF Politburo at the party’s headquarters in Harare on Wednesday, 25 September, Mnangagwa condemned what he considers to be attacks on the economy that harm ordinary people and reaffirmed the government’s commitment to safeguarding Zimbabweans from economic disruptions.
Mnangagwa said the country is making significant progress despite challenges like sanctions, climate change, and global economic issues. He added:
<blockquote>
Acts of economic sabotage, and speculative and counter-productive tendencies by those who thrive on greed and profiteering have no place in our country.
Attacks on the economy to make the public suffer are unacceptable and my Government will protect the ordinary people.
</blockquote>
The warning comes in light of soaring prices for essential grocery items, particularly in formal retail outlets, alongside the rapid decline of the local currency, the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG).
Mnangagwa urged ZANU PF structures to take decisive action against threats to the party’s unity. He said:
<blockquote>
Unruly elements abusing various media platforms to cause alarm and despondency, while also sowing disunity and advancing misguided, nefarious political agendas within the country and Party, stand warned.
I call upon this Politburo Session to once again introspect and give the requisite guidance so that our beloved Party, ZANU PF, and the people of our motherland, Zimbabwe, pick up pace towards building a stronger Party and the realisation of our shared national development agenda.
</blockquote>
Mnangagwa expressed his gratitude to the ZANU PF Youth League leadership from Masvingo Province, along with support from other provinces, for organising the inaugural Munhumutapa Day, which coincided with his 82nd birthday.
Wednesday’s Politburo meeting was also attended by First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa, Vice Presidents Constantino Chiwenga and Kembo Mohadi, ZANU PF National Chairperson Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri, and Party Secretary General Obert Mpofu.

Mnangagwa Vows To Protect Citizens From "Greedy" Businesses

ZANU PF President and First Secretary Emmerson Mnangagwa has demoted Mike Bimha from the position of party Political Commissar to an ordinary member of the Politburo.
In a statement issued on Monday evening, ZANU PF Secretary General, Obert Mpofu, also announced several other reassignments in the Politburo.
He said Jacob Mudenda, the Speaker of the National Assembly, has been re-assigned to be the Party’s Treasurer General, taking over from Patrick Chinamasa, who is now ZANU PF’s Secretary for Legal Affairs.

4. Cde Dr M.C Bimha who was the Party’s Secretary for Commissariat remains a Politburo Member.

Mnangagwa Fires ZANU PF Political Commissar

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has reversed the appointment of General Phillip Valerio Sibanda, the commander of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces, as an ex officio member of the ruling ZANU PF’s politburo. The politburo is an important decision-making body within the party. In a statement, Deputy Chief Secretary, of Presidential Communications, George Charamba said:
<blockquote>
His Excellency the President, Dr E.D. Mnangagwa, has announced the staying of General PV Sibanda’s appointment to the ruling Zanu PF Party Politburo as an ex-officio member. The position will be reviewed at the expiry of General Sibanda’s term as a senior serving officer at the helm of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces, ZDF. This deferment of the appointment resolves the apparent conflict with the country’s Constitution which regulates the conduct of serving members of the Security Services. 
</blockquote>
The appointment of General Phillip Valerio Sibanda as a member of the ruling ZANU PF’s politburo was seen as unconstitutional. Fadzayi Mahere, a Member of Parliament and lawyer, stated that this appointment went against the law and was a clear violation. According to Section 208 of the Constitution, members of the security services are not allowed to hold any position in a political party, whether it’s ex-officio or not. 
There are others who were defending the appointment saying it did not violate the constitution. According to former University of Zimbabwe Political Science lecturer Jonathan Moyo, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/11/01/cdf-general-sibandas-zanu-pf-politburo-appointment-not-unlawful-says-jonathan-moyo/">the appointment was not unconstitutional.</a> He argued that there was nothing in the Constitution that prohibits members of the security services from being members of a political party or organisation. He said Section 208 of the Constitution states that members of the security services must not act in a partisan manner or further the interests of any political party, but it does not explicitly forbid membership in a political party. Moyo believes that General Sibanda’s appointment does not violate the Constitution. 
Before past elections, the military was accused of intimidating and pressuring villagers to vote for the ZANU PF political party.
President Mnangagwa’s reversal of the appointment came after a lawyer from Harare named Kudzai Kadzere gave the president a warning that he would take legal action against him for violating the constitution if he didn’t reverse the appointment within 10 days.

President Mnangagwa Reverses The Appointment Of General Valerio Sibanda To ZANU PF Politburo

ZANU PF has said only the Constitutional Court can declare the appointment of the commander of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) General Phillip Valerio Sibanda to the ZANU PF politburo unconstitutional.
On 28 October 2023, during the ZANU PF annual conference in Gweru, President Emmerson Mnangagwa named General Sibanda as an ex officio member of the Politburo.
The appointment was criticised by lawyers and the opposition who said the Zimbabwe Constitution prohibits security service members from being active in political parties/organisations.
However, speaking to <a href="https://www.zimlive.com/got-to-court-zanu-pf-tells-critics-of-general-sibandas-politburo-appointment/">ZimLive</a>, ZANU PF’s director of information and publicity Farai Marapira said that those who are criticising General Sibanda’s appointment to the Politburo are “misguided” and “loose cannons”. He said:
<blockquote>
Firstly, it is saddening that for a people in a democracy, we still fail to appreciate and respect the fact that only courts of law have the right to speak with finality on matters constitutional and legal.
The Constitutional Court is clearly created and alive for such matters. Anyone else claiming the right to speak as an authority or with finality is clearly misguided and a loose cannon.
We, unfortunately, have personalities in our body politic who are prone to having engorged views of themselves and their opinions.
Last Saturday’s announcement of General Sibanda as an ex officio member of the politburo is wrong in the eyes of a few who may consider themselves learned when they are not.
Limiting interpretation of the appointment to one’s understanding of section 208 of the constitution of Zimbabwe alone is the result that has led to, in my view, a misguided take on matters.
Section 67 of the Constitution, which is sacrosanct, says every Zimbabwean citizen has the right to make political choices freely.
Let it be noted that Section 208 does not also prevent political choice but encourages members of the forces to not make partisan decisions in the execution of their duties.
</blockquote>
Critics are adamant Mnangagwa breached his oath to uphold the Constitution by appointing Sibanda to the ZANU PF Politburo.
Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) spokesman Promise Mkwananzi said:
<blockquote>
ZANU PF cannot keep breaking the law only to tell us to go to court. They must observe the law. The appointment is both unlawful and politically problematic. The general must step down if he chooses to be a politician.
</blockquote>
Lawyer Thabani Mpofu argued that it was unconstitutional for General Sibanda to take up office in the ZANU PF Politburo. He added:
<blockquote>
That does not require any debate, not even a dishonest one. Can you imagine the general taking up a post in the CCC? Not only is this disturbingly inappropriate, it is also vulgar.
If for instance, we were to take the decision to agitate, to carry out nationwide protests, to be civilly disobedient; how is General Sibanda going to respond to us?
Will he respond as a Commander of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces or as a member of the lootocracy that ZANU PF is?
</blockquote>
MDC-T leader Douglas Mwonzora, who is also a lawyer, said:
<blockquote>
The appointment of the Commander of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces General Sibanda into the Politburo of ZANU PF is totally wrong.
It marks a serious desecration of our constitution. It signals a serious and unacceptable conflation of the State, Army, and Party.

Critics Of General Sibanda’s Politburo Appointment Are Misguided - ZANU PF

The opposition Zimbabwe African People’s Union (ZAPU) party said that the Commander of Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF), General Phillip Valerio Sibanda should reject his recent appointment into the ZANU PF Politburo by President Emmerson Mnangagwa if he still has a ZAPU conscience, reported <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/zapu-trashes-former-zipra-commander-valerio-sibanda-says-he-is-now-part-of-zanu-pf-cult-and-should-reject-politburo-appointment/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>.
Sibanda was a member of ZAPU’s military wing, the Zimbabwe People’s Revolutionary Army (ZPRA) during the War of Independence.
On Saturday, 28 October, Mnangagwa announced Sibanda as an ex-officio member of ZANU PF’s Politburo.
Opposition political parties including ZAPU and the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) have said the appointment is unconstitutional and goes against Section 208 of the Constitution of Zimbabwe which bars serving members of the security services from being active members or office bearers of political parties.
Responding to followers on X, formerly Twitter, ZAPU said Sibanda should reject the appointment saying by joining the ZANU PF Politburo, he has become a member of the cult. It said:
<blockquote>
If he still has any ZAPU conscience in him, he would reject it. But anyone who has enjoyed the poisoned chalice for so many years would definitely not do so. He is now part of the cult, and history will judge him harshly!
</blockquote>
Some former ZAPU members who were led by the late former Home Affairs Minister Dumiso Dabengwa left ZANU PF in 2011 to revive the party.
However, the majority maintained their allegiance to ZANU PF saying they respected the 1987 Unity Accord.

ZAPU Says Army Commander Should Reject ZANU PF Politburo Appointment

Zimbabwe’s main opposition party, the Citizens Coalition of Change (CCC) has strongly condemned President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/10/28/army-commander-named-zanu-pf-politburo-ex-officio-member/">appointment</a> of General <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Philip_Valerio_Sibanda/">Philip Valerio Sibanda</a> to the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zanu-PF_Politiburo/">ZANU PF Politburo</a>. Mnangagwa announced on Saturday, 28 October at the ZANU PF 20th National People’s Conference at the ZANU PF Conventional Centre in Gweru, Midlands that Sibanda, the Commander of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) was now an ex officio member of the Politburo. The appointment has attracted criticism from several political analysts and lawyers who say the move was unconstitutional. The CCC party said:
<blockquote>
The Citizens Coalition of Change strongly condemns Mr Mnangagwa’s announcement of appointing a senior officer of the security forces, Army General Valerio Sibanda to the Zanu PF politburo. This action blatantly violates the Zimbabwe Constitution, specifically Section 208 (3), which clearly prohibits security service members from being active in any political party or organization.
The announcement is part of a pattern of constitutional violations under the Mnangagwa regime. Our New Great Zimbabwe Blueprint emphasizes the commitment of a CCC government to uphold the professionalism and independence of state institutions, including the security services.
The Citizens Coalition of Change will utilize all available legal means to preserve Constitutionalism and the rule of law, denouncing Mnangagwa’s abuse of the Constitution.
</blockquote>
The relationship between the army and ZANU PF (Zimbabwe African National Union–Patriotic Front) and ZAPU (Zimbabwe African People’s Union) since pre-independence has been complex and marked by both cooperation and conflict. During the liberation struggle, ZANU PF and ZAPU had their respective military wings, with ZANU PF’s being the Zimbabwe African National Liberation Army (ZANLA) and ZAPU’s being the Zimbabwe People’s Revolutionary Army (ZIPRA).
After independence, ZANU PF gained power and the army became closely aligned with the ruling party, leading to accusations of human rights abuses, particularly during the Gukurahundi massacres in the 1980s. Despite occasional conflicts, ZANU PF has maintained influence over the military, with several key military figures holding important positions within the party.
There are concerns that Sibanda might struggle to separate national interests from party interests, especially when dealing with opposition parties like the CCC. Some analysts are worried about the biased way security officials carry out their duties. The opposition has long claimed that the police and military are deployed to intimidate opposition supporters and prevent them from holding rallies.

CCC Condemns Mnangagwa's Appointment Of General Valerio Sibanda To The ZANU PF Politburo

Dr <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Walter_Mzembi/">Walter Mzembi</a>, former Tourism Minister of Zimbabwe, has expressed concerns about <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/10/28/army-commander-named-zanu-pf-politburo-ex-officio-member/">the appointment</a> of General <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Philip_Valerio_Sibanda/">Philip Valerio Sibanda</a>, the Commander of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF), as an Ex-officio Politburo member within the ruling party, ZANU PF. The <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zanu-PF_Politiburo/">Politburo</a> is the ZANU’s highest decision-making body. President Emmerson Mnangagwa made the announcement during the ZANU PF 20th National People’s Conference in Gweru. 
“Ex officio” means that someone holds a position automatically or because of their other responsibilities. It grants them certain rights and powers without being appointed or elected specifically for those duties. However, this appointment of Valerio Sibanda, the Commander of Zimbabwe’s Defence Forces, as an ex officio member of the ruling party’s Politburo, is likely illegal and goes against the country’s constitution. The constitution prohibits members of the security services from being active in any political party. This situation reflects the issue of party-state conflation, which hampers the process of democratization in Zimbabwe, as highlighted by political commentators. Mzembi said:
<blockquote>
The implications are that much of Cabinet Policies are generated or given direction from the Politburo of Zanu PF as a Ruling Party, and inviting the interest of Securocrats at this policy formulation or generation stage simply reflects an extension of November 2017 power-sharing understanding of Zanu PF and the Military. It is also a consolidation and reset to Liberation War High Command political architecture that steered the liberation struggle. 
The unspoken is the subordination of the Military Factor under Zanu PF, which would be problematic in the future if there is a new generation non military leader. It appears a natural now because in the hierarchy of Zanu PF itself is a former CDF to whom General Sibanda reported but Mnangagwa himself, a Chairman of the Joint Operation Command under Mugabe, former Defense Minister but right from Independence Minister of State Security. 
The precedent though has been of former CDFs joining the Politburo after retirement, as was the case with Generals Mujuru and Zvinavashe which was a cleaner arrangement constitutionally. Sitting inside a Politburo where the fate of Opposition Parties is plotted and decided creates conflict for a CDF no matter how professional he may want to be seen. It’s untidy. It is these boundaries lately that relate to our State design that are being crossed with reckless abandon and disdain, and it should worry any right-thinking Zimbabwean. 
</blockquote>
Mzembi mentioned that for a professional soldier, especially the Chief of Defense Forces (CDF), the appointment is a difficult and challenging role. General Sibanda is well-regarded by the public, and Mzembi hopes that he will consider declining the appointment and handle it wisely. Mzembi suggests that if General Sibanda accepts the role, he should be involved in all political party hierarchies to ensure fairness. However, it is important to note that the Constitution explicitly states that the CDF cannot be partisan.
Brighton Mutebuka, a Zimbabwean lawyer based in the UK, stated that the appointment of General Philip Valerio Sibanda as an Ex-officio Politburo member is unconstitutional. Mutebuka mentioned that General Sibanda had the option to decline the appointment but chose not to. He said:
<blockquote>
This is a straightforward situation. The appointment is unconstitutional. He could have declined it but failed to do so. Many said he was ZAPU &amp; principled but they overlooked that he wasn’t beyond prioritising personal ambition &amp; survival. 
</blockquote>
Mutebuka argued that attempts to convince Sibanda to do the right thing based on his conscience or moral values is pointless and will not succeed. He believes that the situation is becoming more intense. Mutebuka says Zimbabweans should brace themselves for the challenges ahead.

General Valerio Sibanda's Appointment Should Worry Any Right-Thinking Zimbabwean - Mzembi

President Emmerson has announced Zimbabwe Defence Forces commander General Phillip Valerio Sibanda as an ex officio Member of the ZANU PF Politburo.
Mnangagwa made the announcement on Saturday, 28 October at the ZANU PF 20th National People’s Conference at the ZANU PF Conventional Centre in Gweru.
Mnangagwa was giving his closing remarks for the two-day conference which started on Friday. He said:
<blockquote>
The amended 2023 Party Constitution gives impetus, urgency and renewed focus to the socio-economic and political realities of our country towards lifting many out of poverty and into prosperity. During the course of the year, we lost one of our Party stalwarts, Cde Joshua Teke Malinga who was the Secretary for People with Disabilities.
To fill the vacancy, I am appointing, Cde Rose Mpofu of Matabeleland South Province as a Politburo Member and the new Secretary for People with Disabilities.
Additionally, “Cde Gwenzi”, General, Phillip Valerio Sibanda, as an Ex Officio Member of the Politburo.
</blockquote>

The phrase “Ex officio” is used to describe a role or position that someone holds automatically or as a result of their other responsibilities or title.
When someone has an ex officio position, they have certain rights, powers, or privileges simply because of the position they hold, rather than being appointed or elected specifically to fulfill those duties.
The appointment is likely illegal and a violation of Zimbabwe’s constitution which says that members of the security services must not be active members or office-bearers of any political party or organisation.
Political commentators have consistently raised the issue of party-state conflation in Zimbabwe which is considered a hindrance to democratisation.

In a Twitter thread seen by Pindula News, Mliswa, a former ZANU PF legislator said the inclusion of some young people is a positive thing. He said:
<blockquote>
Interesting list of new Politburo members. Some have been recycled back&amp; others are vital inclusions as they will provide new impetus. Would have thought <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Jabulani_Sibanda">Jabulani Sibanda</a> would be part of it to manage the politics of southern&amp; northern regions. He is a commissar par excellence.
Great inclusion of Hon Adv <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Jacob_Mudenda">Jacob Mudenda</a> again. He is respected, fair and knows the law. That’s a great appointment as we go towards the elections. Brings a lot of credibility too. He is a stickler for doing things according to procedure. That’s why he is called the Headmaster.
Tino Machakaire as a youth leader is another good move. It may be a bit late but vital all the same. He will turn around the youth wing from the thuggish entity it was becoming under <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Kindness_Paradza">Paradza</a>, Masenda and even Mukupe who was telling people he will be in the PB.
Machakaire is suave&amp; wise to interact with everyone, restoring respect&amp; order. If the likes of Mukupe had come in then the party would have totally lost it. He is the kind that will abuse positions for business. He was telling people that he had lobbied enough to be in the PB!
Now that he isn’t part of it, it’s a sigh of relief for the people of Hurungwe because they would have been abused because of that position. Mwari anzwa minamato yavo. If people gloat over being in the Central Committee, him being in the PB would have been a disaster.
The return of <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Supa_Mandiwanzira">Supa Mandiwanzira</a> is also a good move. Another young politician. Positive move on <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Tendai_Chirau">Chirau</a> again. The guy is disciplined as a party cadre. The PB list is a little skewed on the gender equality side though.
The inclusion of young people like <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Tino_Machakaire">Tino Machakaire</a> is important as it counters solidly the alternative opposition figures such <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Gift_Ostallos_Siziba">Ostallos</a> who is a brilliant orator.

Congratulations to my boss, the freshly re-appointed first secretary and president of the ruling ZANU PF, his Excellency President Mnangagwa.
The people saw him as worthy and his credentials resold him to lead our revolutionary party.
In the short stint in his tenure. Zimbabwe has witnessed monumental economic revival, infrastructural development, industrial retooling, and extractive sector value addition.
I am particularly grateful that his Excellency appointed me to be ZANU PF’s secretary for administration once more.
This is an opportunity for my office to continue enhancing the professionalism of the party.
This is yet another chance to ensure that ZANU PF will strengthen its mass line approach.

President Mnangagwa Appoints New Central Committee And Politburo Members

President Emmerson Mnangagwa is set to announce a new politburo which may see some of the current members become ordinary card-carrying members.
Speaking during the last politburo meeting before the 7th ZANU PF National People’s Congress which commenced on Wednesday, 26 October, Mnangagwa revealed that some members will be reassigned. He said:
<blockquote>
In whatever portfolios the party assigns us in the future, let us maintain the momentum we have demonstrated to date, while at the same time providing appropriate guidance to the lower structures of the party.
No matter our portfolios in the future, let us remain unflinching and consistent as loyal, patriotic, and committed members of ZANU PF emboldened by the fact that in our party, leaders at every level are servants of the people, as such the most important position in ZANU PF is to be a card-carrying member.
