Mugabe praises 'tough' Zimbabweans

President Robert Mugabe in his state of the nation address on Tuesday praised Zimbabweans for showing 'resilience' through economic troubles.

Delivering the 2016 State of the Nation Address in Parliament largely inclined towards achievements of the 10 Point Plan and Zim Asset, President Mugabe lauded Zimbabweans for their resilience in enduring "all manner of economic hardships" in nearly two decades.
 
"I wish to commend them for their resilience, and urge them to cherish the peace and tranquility that continues to be the envy of many," he said.

"Let us continue to find national pride in our core values of unity, hard work and freedom."
