Correspondent|VISITING delegation from South Africa’s Africa National Congress (ANC) which arrived on Monday night has met with ZANU-PF officials at the ruling party’s headquarters in Harare.

The ANC team is being led by the party’s Secretary-General Ace Magashule and includes senior ANC officials Tony Yengeni, Thoko Didiza, Bongani Nongo, who are all ANC central committee members and Justice Phitso, the chief of staff to the secretary general’s office.

In his address, Magashule applauded President Mnangagwa for giving them the opportunity to interact with their counterparts.

“We clearly understand the situation on the ground which is affecting your country and we want to move forward as former liberation movements in addressing your situation,” he said.

ZANU-PF secretary for administration Orbert Mpofu said they were joined together by a very rich revolutionary background which actually realized their people being emancipated from the tentacles of oppression and subjugation over many years.

“Our long walk to freedom as stated by your founding father Nelson Rolihlala Mandela still continues. As Zimbabwe we have achieved one milestone in this journey of emancipation by ensuring that we take ownership of the land.

“This precious resource which is very dear and sentimental to all Africans should not be taken for granted,” he said.
