“Vision 2030 stands as a modern-day embodiment of the aspirations of liberation heroes like Dr. John Nkomo, whose lifelong struggle was for a nation that uplifts all its people.”
"President Mnangagwa has consistently assisted the Trust in fulfilling its objectives of fostering development over the years."
The late VP died of cancer on January, 17, 2013 at the age of 78 at St Anne's Hospital in Harare.
He was a towering figure in the nation's history whose legacy is fundamentally defined by his lifelong pursuit of peace, unity, and development.
He is remembered not just as a liberation hero, but as a statesman who sacrificed personal ambition for peace, unity and development.
“As one of the foremost torchbearers of unity and peace in our time, President Mnangagwa continues to inspire through his visionary leadership,” Nkomo said.
“His dedication to national healing, economic revival, and inclusive governance is akin to the work propagated by Dr. Nkomo—a legacy our Trust proudly upholds.”
