By A Correspondent- Foreign Affairs Minister, Sibusiso B Moyo has called upon Zimbabweans to draw a line between politics and national interests.

He said that Zimbabwe can be great again if national interest is placed ahead of political expediency.

He urged Zimbabweans to be tolerant to each other’s divergent views adding that there should be limits to how these views are expressed.

Speaking to Zimbabweans gathered at the Zimbabwean Embassy in the UK, the Zimbabwe House, the minister said that every citizen despite their political affiliation has a role in the development of the country.

Moyo encouraged the guests to make contributions to the development of the nation. He said that the government viewed the diasporans as an important sector of the economy.

He made reference to some countries which are benefitting from the contributions of the diasporans and said Zimbabweans should also emulate that.

Every contribution, including ideas, is important in the development of Zimbabwe.

Zimbabweans in the diaspora also can play a positive role in building Zimbabwe by being good ambassadors as this helps the country in achieving its diplomatic offensive policy.

Moyo appreciated the efforts being made by the diaspora community to help Zimbabwe.

“There are some who have been donating ambulances to medical institutions in Zimbabwe to assist the communities. We appreciate that.”
