Zanu PF politburo member Saviour Kasukuwere yesterday pledged 600 bags of cement towards the construction of Guta Ra Mwari (Zvimiso) Church building in Mpopoma, Bulawayo.
This came at a time the party has intensified its membership drive targeting youths and church organisations across the country ahead of the harmonised elections likely this year.
Addressing Guta RaMwari (Zvimiso) members in Bulawayo, Kasukuwere said: "I met some of your leaders at a rally here in Bulawayo and they asked me to come here to get the power to prosper and get support from the church. I was born in the Johanne Marange Church, an indigenous church like Guta RaMwari and these are our own churches. We must support them and also get their support. We cannot look for support from foreign churches when we have our own indigenous churches."
Kasukuwere, who is also Youth Development, Indigenisation and Empowerment minister, said Zanu PF supported all indigenous churches, but was asking for their support as well.
"We have 100% support from the leaders of Guta RaMwari (Zvimiso) and today I promise that I will bring 600 bags of cement for the construction of this church. I do this to thank the church for being organised and for the support we get from it."
