Vice President Retired General Constantino Chiwenga says
the country’s focus should now move from political sloganeering to rebuilding
the economy.
He was speaking at Greenfields Farm in Chakari on the
occasion of a tour of a 350 hectare wheat field where he earlier in the year
launched the command wheat programme for 2018.
The farm is owned by Mr Colleen Gura.
Vice President Chiwenga, who is on a national crop
assessment tour, said time for politicking is over as focus should now be on
rebuilding the national economy through productivity in various sectors
including agriculture.
Mashonaland West Provincial Crop and Livestock Officer,
Edna Shambare implored the government to comprehensively provide for command
agriculture programmes through provision of the necessary mechanical farming
equipment.
Prior to touring Greenfields Farm, Vice President Chiwenga
had visited Nyathi Imhenyu Farm in Banket in the company of the Minister of
Lands, Agriculture and Rural Resettlement, Retired Air Chief Marshall Perance
Shiri and other senior government officials. zbc
