Auxillia, who is Justice minister Emmerson Mnangagwa’s wife, has been instrumental in the establishment of women’s banks in the Midlands areas of Silobela, Zhombe, Kwekwe and Chirumanzu-Zibagwe, among others.
Last Friday, Mnangagwa visited Whawha Prison in Gweru where she met prison officers and spouses of male officers at a seminar to come up with projects.
She said officers in the police and army were already benefitting from business ventures adding that prison officers should not be left out.
“For best results, it is prudent to start at the level of the smallest social unit, that is the family, and then move on to the cell/village, branch, district, province and the nation at large,” Mnangagwa said.
She said women should know that ZimAsset was meant to transform the quality of life of their families.
“To this end, it is important for us to craft our own mini-ZimAssets and strategic action plans at the household level so that we can draw maximum benefit from them.”
The female prison officers and spouses of male officers were drawn from Chiredzi, Whawha to Gokwe North.
She urged officers at the Whawha Prison Complex to come up with action strategies that ensured food security and surplus for sale and income generation, which [projects] she would engage the relevant ministries for funding.
In 2013, Mnangagwa launched a women’s bank in Mvuma with the assistance of the Small and Medium Enterprises and Co-operative Development ministry.
COMMENTS
She is now putting final touches to her grand plan to be the first lady of Zimbabwe. The catastrophe of having Mnangagwa as the president of Zimbabwe will be worse than the holocaust and the Tsunami combined together. That will be the end of Zimbabwe and that will be the day me and my whole family will denounce the Zimbabwean citizenship. This will be the darkest day in the history of Zimbabwe. Although both Mujuru and Mnangagwa are both lions, Mnangagwa is a wild lion with a strong appetite for human blood and Mujuru is a domesticated lion. Out of the 2 worst alternatives, the better worse one is Mujuru.
‘Auxiliary’ Mnangagwa. No, one Mnangagwa is enough, I think.
Jesus Christ..the hypocrisy. Just putting her name on the map to fill DisGrace’s shoes when Old Man Bob goes.Someone has told her she should prep for being 1st Lady.Now I wonder should her wish ever come true which peasants will be evicted enmasse to make room for her “projects”?? Seeing as DisGrace has chosen Mazoe ,will it be the poor peasants in Chiundura?Kwekewe? Zvishabane?
Selfish people.
