Zimbabwe– Zimbabwean President, Emmerson Mnangagwa, is currently paying courtesy calls to all SADC leaders following his inauguration in November last year after the resignation of his predecessor, Robert Mugabe. President Emmerson Mnangagwa visited South Africa where he met with President Jacob Zuma and again went to Angola to meet that country’s President, Joao Lourenco. Other visits include Botswana, Zambia, Namibia and Mozambique, among other countries. The visits shall be placed in such a manner which does not inconvenience office work as well as other engagements. The Angola trip was Emmerson Mnangagwa’s second foreign visit since he assumed office after Mugabe was forced out following a military intervention code-named “Operation Restore Legacy. The visit afforded Emmerson Mnangagwa an opportunity to interact with Angola’s new leader, João Lourenço, who took over from José Eduardo dos Santos in 2017. The two leaders, who are all new to their positions, discussed ways to strengthen relations and co-operation in areas of commonality such as security, energy and extractive mining.
Since his inauguration on November 24, President Emmerson Mnangagwa has hit the ground running introducing a cocktail of interventions towards the stimulation of the economy with the aim of returning the country to its lost glory.
