Mnangagwa,
who
also
serves
as
the
party’s
First
Secretary,
appoints
members
of
the
ZANU-PF
Politburo,
among
other
responsibilities.
Speaking
at
what
he
called
the
party’s
final
press
conference
of
2025,
held
at
ZANU-PF
headquarters
in
Harare
on
Wednesday,
Mutsvangwa
said
Mnangagwa
had
successfully
guided
the
party
through
what
some
had
predicted
would
be
a
“watershed
year.”
He
said:
“We
have
crossed
this
year,
which
many
felt
would
be
a
watershed
year
for
Zimbabwe.“He
has
shepherded
the
Zimbabwean
revolution
with
acumen,
and
we
have
crossed
the
year
with
very
united
leadership.
His
authority
in
the
party
is
unchallenged.”
Mutsvangwa
said
the
resolutions
adopted
at
the
party’s
annual
conference
in
Manicaland
demonstrate
both
unity
and
the
unchallenged
authority
of
President
Mnangagwa.
He
also
pointed
out
a
series
of
recent
party
meetings,
including
the
Politburo,
Central
Committee,
and
Consultative
Assembly,
as
further
proof
of
discipline
and
cohesion
within
the
ruling
party.
He
said:
“In
all
those
meetings,
the
authority
of
the
President
was
evident.
Everybody
is
dancing
according
to
the
codes
of
the
leadership
of
the
party,
in
this
orchestra
of
harmony
which
is
ZANU
PF.”“For
those
who
entertained
ideas
about
where
ZANU
PF
would
go,
we
are
living
up
to
the
billing
of
a
60-year-old
revolutionary
party
shaping
the
destiny
of
the
people
of
Zimbabwe.”
