ZANU-PF Bulawayo province has organised transport to ferry members of the public to the Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International Airport to welcome President Robert Mugabe tomorrow.

The President will be in Bulawayo for the official opening of the 56th edition of the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair.

The premier regional showcase is being held under the theme "Stimulating Trade, Seizing Opportunities to Accelerate Growth" and will be officially opened by Zambian President Edgar Lungu tomorrow.

The party's provincial spokesperson Christopher Sibanda yesterday said they had organised 10 buses.

"We have organised about 10 buses out of the targeted 15 to ferry people from the usual pick up points to the airport to give a warm welcome to our President and other visitors. People should show how committed and happy they are especially ahead of the June 10 by-elections," Sibanda said.

"We have five areas. In Area 1 people will be collected from Makokoba Centre and Mzilikazi, in Area 2 people will be collected from the party's offices in Magwegwe and Pumula East roundabout. Area 3's pickup point is Njube Hall and Lobengula shopping centre, Area 4 includes Sekusile, Nkulumane shopping centre and the Area 5 people will be picked up from Nketa 7 shopping centre."

Sibanda urged people to turn up in their numbers to meet their President.

"We urge people to turn up in their numbers and welcome our visitors. We are blessed to have them in Bulawayo and so let us go out there and meet them," Sibanda said.
