The eighth edition of the Presidential Youth Interface rallies will be held in Mashonaland Central  province at Chipadze Stadium in Bindura on Saturday.

This was confirmed by Zanu-PF Secretary for Youth Affairs Cde Kudzanai Chipanga after an inter-district meeting held at Bindura Country Club yesterday.

“The next Interface rally will be held this coming Saturday in Bindura, the capital of Mashonaland Central. The rally will be held at Chipadze Stadium and today we had an inter-district meeting to make preparations for the event,” Cde Chipanga said.

He said a bumper crowd is expected to attend the rally as has been witnessed in other provinces.

“We expect a bumper crowd and we discussed ways of creating more sitting space for the huge crowd expected to attend.

“We are already mobilising fuel and other resources that are needed to ensure that the province successfully hosts the event,” he said.

Cde Chipanga urged youths in Mashonaland Central to turn up in their thousands to interact with the President.

“We call on all the patriotic youths in the province to come in their numbers to meet the President.

“We want them to show their gratitude to President Mugabe for the various initiatives his Government has embarked on to empower young people,” Cde Chipanga said.

He  said they were happy with the success of the rallies so far held.

“As the ruling party’s Youth League we are happy with the huge crowds witnessed at the interface rallies. This is a sign that we will win resoundingly in next year’s elections. Zanu-PF is the only party that puts people at the centre of its policies,” said Cde Chipanga.

The seventh Interface rally was held in the Midlands capital city of Gweru last Friday and was attended by more than 100 000 people.

In his address in Gweru on Saturday President Mugabe commended the Youth League for coming up with the initiative to mobilise youths.

Yesterday’s meeting in Bindura was attended by other senior leaders in the Province that include Political Commissar Cde Saviour Kasukuwere, Mashonaland Central Provincial Affairs Minister Cde Martin Dinha and Zanu-PF provincial chairman Cde Dickson Mafios among others.
