MenBelieveED, an organisation supporting President Mnangagwa’s vision of economic development, is preparing to host a presidential solidarity march on Saturday at the Robert Mugabe Square in Harare in appreciation of the President’s efforts in achieving an upper-middle income economy.

The solidarity march will be held under the theme “Marching towards a victorious 2023”.

At least 100 000 delegates from across the country are expected to participate in the march.

Each province will mobilise a minimum of 10 000 delegates.

Those in the diaspora will attend the event virtually.

Designated assembly points will be announced in due course.

MenBelieveED secretary general Mr Bethel Jaricha said the main purpose of the solidarity march is to show both internal and external forces that Zimbabweans were fully behind President Mnangagwa’s leadership.

Success stories of the Second Republic’s achievements will be shared during the solidarity march.

“This will enhance the visibility of his efforts in attaining vision 2030,” Mr Jaricha said.

“By coming out in our numbers as we target the #5 million votes in the 2023 general elections, a resounding win is guaranteed since such an event will silence the country’s detractors.

“We are doing this as a way of endorsing President Mnangagwa as the sole candidate for 2023 harmonised elections. We are happy with our President, we are happy with the developmental progress taking place across the country.”

The New Dispensation, under President Mnangagwa, has entrenched the spirit of development in Zimbabwe in the past years, such that what some thought could not be achieved is now a common occurrence.

Everywhere in the country, there is something about development taking places in various sectors, especially with the availing of devolution funds to the lower tiers of governance.

MenBelieveED spokesperson Mr Timothy Nyakudzuka said the solidarity march will be a national event.

“We are going to be marching from designated points to be announced in due course,” he said.

The march is in solidarity with President Mnangagwa based on the negative reports from the country’s detractors.

“What he promised when he came into power, is what is being delivered.”

Various artists are lined up to provide entertainment to the participants.
