The President and Commander-in-Chief of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces, Emmerson Mnangagwa says the renaming of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) barracks marks exorcising of the ghost of colonialism.

President Mnangagwa said this when he officially renamed the King George VI Barracks to Josiah Magama Tongogara Barracks in Harare this morning.

The ceremony also marked the renaming of several Zimbabwe Defence Forces barracks countrywide.

There was an embarrassing spelling error on the new plaque at the renamed Tongogara Barracks. The new plaque was written Zimbawe Defence Forces instead of Zimbabwe Defence Forces.
