By Own Correspondent| Gutu West legislator John Paradza has called on Zimbabwean to rally behind President Emmerson Mnangagwa and his administration adding that he was Zimbabwe’s own biblical Joshua ordained by God to lead the country.

Addressing hundreds of party supporters at Cambri Primary School in Lalapanzi at Cambri Primary School recently Paradza said Mnangagwa was a God chosen leader who was committed to turning around the economy.

Paradza was speaking at the ceremony to celebrate the victory of Prosper Machando who was elected Member of Parliament for Chirumanzu- Zibagwe in the July 2018 harmonised polls.

He said:

“We went for elections and the ruling party did well as evidenced by Cde Machando whom you elected as your MP. We crushed the opposition parties left- right and centre in Chirumanzu -Zibagwe.

Such celebrations are done to thank the electorate for the confidence they have shown in the party and its leadership under Cde Mnangagwa.

The Bible says leaders are chosen by God and ED was put in that position by God and therefore the need to appreciate him. He is the Biblical Joshua or Moses to lead us into Canaan which is the Promised Land though the path might be painful.”
