Comrades and Friends,
The nation applauds the Zimbabwe Defence Forces and all other security services, for their unwavering loyalty, commitment and diligence in maintaining and protecting the territorial integrity, security and sovereignty of our beloved country. We further commend our Defence Forces for all the assistance they render to vulnerable communities in times of national disasters.
Their intervention and personnel and logistical support in the implementation of Government programmes such as the distribution of grain to communities, the construction and rehabilitation of schools, roads and clinics are noted and commended and highly appreciated.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
In few months’ time, our country will hold harmonised general elections. I urge all leaders of political parties to heed the call of our national anthem and “be exemplary” during our contestations and canvassing for people’s support. Let us shun and condemn all forms of violence, divisive, hurtful and hate speech.
My Government has put in place measures for the holding of transparent, free, fair and credible elections. In that spirit, we have invited observers from across the globe to witness our democracy in action, and have since received pre-election observer missions from SADC, the AU and the EU.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Allow me to express my heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to all our country’s friends from across the globe, who have sent us warm congratulatory messages on the occasion of this, Zimbabwe’s 38th Independence Anniversary!
Comrades and Friends, fellow Zimbabweans;
As we commemorate and celebrate the birth of our nation, let us believe that our tomorrow is greater. Let us boldly and proudly sing our national anthem, and fly our flag high in renewed hope and unity. Let us think big of our country, for the Bible says, “As a man thinks in his heart, so he is”. Let us also speak and confess well and the very best over our country, for the Bible again says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it, shall eat the fruit thereof”.
Nothing is impossible. Zimbabwe shall rise again.
Happy 38th Birthday Zimbabwe!
Makorokoto!
Amhlophe!
Long Live Our Independence and Freedom!
God Bless Zimbabwe!
