PRESIDENT Mnangagwa has yet again demonstrated that he is a man of his word after superintending over the completion of multiple multi-million dollar projects ahead of next month’s 44th SADC Summit, which will be his crowning moment as the chairperson of the regional body. Ahead of the summit, which Zimbabwe will host on August 17 and 18, all the requisite infrastructure is either complete or nearing completion, with Government on Tuesday saying all the works are 90 percent complete. A VIP lounge at the Robert Mugabe International Airport is complete, the road leading to the New Parliament Building is also complete, while accommodation and other infrastructure have been spruced up to meet international standards. Recently, during an assessment tour of the facilities leading to the New Parliament Building just outside Harare’s Central Business District, the President assured SADC leaders and their delegations that he would ensure they are treated to a one-of-a-kind experience during their stay in the country. “ . . . I have no doubt that we will accomplish the task. Yes, I am very happy that my vision is actualising slowly . . . I am so happy,” President Mnangagwa said. “This is why we are working 24 hours a day to make sure we host SADC, here, in an environment never seen before and I believe that.” ReadMore
