Treasury has released over US$101 million this year for the Gwayi-Shangani and Kunzvi dams, in line with President Mnangagwa’s directive to fast-track major infrastructure under his administration’s development agenda. Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube said the projects—now over 60% complete—symbolize the government’s push to fulfil long-delayed national commitments and bolster its “Second Republic” legacy. The investments underscore Mnangagwa’s bid to demonstrate progress on water security and rural development ahead of future elections.
