I wish to carry President Mnangagwa on my back like a baby, says Honourable Chibagu

Proportional Representation legislator Getrude Chibagu has told the National Assembly that her wish is to carry President Emmerson Mnangagwa on her back like a baby for a job well done.

According to the legislator, people in Mbire District have been working since 1980, without producing anything due to various challenges in the area, that range from drawing water from the mountains among others.

She said things have changed now since President Emmerson Mnangagwa intervened through the drilling of boreholes that have made life easy and people are involved in irrigation projects.

Speaking in the National Assembly during the debate of the State of the Nation Address speech, Honourable Chibagu said the changes brought by the President deserve to be appreciated and she wishes she could carry him on her back like a baby, as a token of appreciation.

‘’Mr. Speaker, as I am speaking, if it was possible to carry an old person like a baby, I would carry His Excellency President Mnangagwa on my back because he is doing a very good job, working very hard and supporting every Zimbabwean.

‘’So, what would you want?  You find young people taking mutoriro, they are destroying themselves, but we need to work very hard, we need to farm our land.

‘’You hear people like Kanyemba-Bhonzo who broadcast at ZBC, he comes from our area Kanyemba and this is a very good thing. In this august House, there is a need for us to value development, emulating His Excellency. 

‘’I will not say much but my plea is that as Zimbabweans, let us work hard and develop our nation,’’ she said.

Meanwhile, it is encouraging to see Honourable Chibagu contributing to debates in the National Assembly as she once spent the entire term without saying anything in Parliament.

The legislator is serving her 3rd term in Parliament. She was a Senator (2008-2013) & then elected to National Assembly (Women’s Quota) since 2013.
