Farai Dziva|A Masvingo based political analyst, Jeffryson Chitando, has said Auxillia Mnangagwa should focus on fixing the economy instead of wasting energy on pushing for a national dress code.

Speaking at Harare International Conference Centre (HICC) on Monday, Mrs Mnangagwa said:
“What brings us together today is a subject of great national importance which should have been concluded over the past 39 years of our independence.

As the mother of the nation, I am convinced that all Zimbabweans regardless of colour, creed, sex, age or location will be willing and keen to contribute to this national project involving my full participation.
The dress should reflect a lot more on our traditions, history, national heritage and aspirations.

It should also be appropriate for social and religious gatherings.

It should give us our national identity that conveys a message that I am Zimbabwean without even saying a word.”

However, Chitando said:”The First Lady has to get her priorities right, at this juncture the nation desperately needs to come out of the economic crisis.

Mrs Mnangagwa must work on how to fix the economy.”
