President Mugabe was yesterday given a reverberating homecoming in Chinhoyi, with tens of thousands of people turning out for his interface with youths in his birth province of Mashonaland West.
The province showed why it has been dubbed “Mashonaland Best” as people came out in droves for the opportunity to hear the President address them.
Yesterday’s Presidential Youth Interface was the fifth of oversubscribed meetings that have seen Zanu-PF’s First Secretary meet and address large crowds in Mashonaland East, Manicaland, Masvingo and Matabeleland South.
The Chinhoyi University of Technology Stadium proved too small a venue for the Presidential juggernaut.
Thousands of people started streaming into the stadium as early as 5 am, with long queues the order of the day, as security details continued to screen people long after President Mugabe’s arrival.
When President Mugabe entered and circled the stadium, the atmosphere was charged as he, First Lady Amai Grace Mugabe and Zanu-PF Youth League Secretary Cde Kudzai Chipanga greeted the crowds.
President Mugabe paid homage to the tens of thousands in attendance, describing the gathering as one of the biggest audiences he had seen since the Presidential Youth Interface Rallies began last month.
“Vanotungamirira province, machairman nevamwe vose vari pasi pavo varipano, ndinoda kuvamba nekukutendai nekundimuka kwamaita muchiuya nehuwandu hwakadayi hunobva hwaratidza kuti chokwadi yainzi Mash West iye yava Mash Best,” said the President.
“Ndangaririo yatinayo pano indangariro yevadiki vedu; Cde Chipanga, vatinopa rukudzo, nevamwe vavo vakavamba vachiti ngatiite imwe interface yekunosangana naPresident, nyika yose.
“Vakakorokodza vanhu kuti vafambe, one million, vachiuya kuHarare kuzonditenda nebasa randakaita ndiri Chairman weAU zvichibatanidza nehuChairman wemuregion yedu yeSadc.
“Saka, iyi yakazova pfungwatsva. Ndozvatinoda kuona musangano wedu uchiita. Pfungwa dzemberi dzinoita kuti musangano wedu urambe uri musangano wevanhu, urambe uri musangano unobatanidza vanhu pachavo, unobatanidza vanhu nevatungamiriri vavo.
“Tichinzwa pfungwa dzenyu dzamuinadzo dzinoti zvinangwa zvamugadai muinazvo kuti musangano uenderere mberi; nezvichemo zvamungadai muinazvo kuti ah tirikuchema nezvakati mungazviongorora here?”
Added the President: “Tauya kuMashonaland Best, vana vedu mayouth edu ahh, kuti vazoronga kuita gungano rakadai rinondimuka, richiuya kuChinhoyi ibasa rekushinga, kushinga nechido. Hongu, rubatsiro runovapo kubva kumadzimai, kubva kuvakuru, kubva kushamwari dzedu. Kubatanidzwa ikono, humwechete ihoho ipfungwa dzevana vedu. Tinovatenda. Varoverei maoko! Varoverei maoko!

“Ndinoda, pamashoko iwayo, kuti ndivambe ndichiti Zanu-PF ndiwo musangano wakarwira, ndiwo musangano wakafirwa nemagamba edu. Nhasi uno wava kutonga.”
President Mugabe pointed out that the revolution was informed by sound values, and the quest for total liberation was a continuous process.
“Ndanga ndichitaura kwatabva kucentre yedu yecommunication ndichiti hatingave vanhu vane tsika yemusangano, hatingave zvakare marevolutionaries vane gwara nekuti revolution haisi yezuva rimwechete,” he said.
“Revolution icontinuous process, inoramba ichifamba isu tatakura nyaya yekuzvipra, nyaya yekurwira nyika yedu, tichitarisa shure kwedu kuti vakuru vedu ndezvipi zvavakaita.

President Mugabe went on, “Vauyi. Saka takarongawo hurongwa hwaida kuti tive nemusangano wakasimba. Hongu, takazoita musangano tikaparadzana Zanu neZapu, asi takazobatana zvakare.
