By Regina Pasipanodya Tshapongwe, Beitbridge. In a vibrant display of unity and cultural pride, Matabeleland South Province came together on Saturday to honor the appointment of Hon. Albert Nguluvhe as the new Minister of State for Provincial Affairs and Devolution. The celebration held in Tshapongwe was not just a festive gathering; it became a living portrait of Zimbabwe’s commitment to the principles of devolution and grassroots participation. The occasion drew an impressive array of traditional leaders, civic authorities, and national dignitaries who all came together to affirm the province’s readiness to take ownership of its development path. Chiefs Matibe and Magoda Mulalo from Limpopo Province, South Africa, alongside Headmen Tshinoni, Tshikwelengwe, and Foromen, blessed the event with ancestral significance. Church leaders led by Bishop Dube of the Lutheran Church Western Denary provided spiritual depth, demonstrating the province’s diverse moral compass.More than a ceremony, the event highlighted cooperation across government, business, and civil society. Local entrepreneurs played an important role, funding logistics and providing transport for hundreds of attendees. This gesture underscored the vital collaboration between the private sector and public initiatives. Minister Nguluvhe, speaking amid a chorus of cheers and traditional songs, pledged to uphold President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s inclusive development statement: “No place or nobody will be left behind.” His words echoed both a promise and a rallying call for a united push toward Vision 2030. As Matabeleland South steps into this new chapter, the celebration proves that devolution is not just a policy; it’s a movement driven by the people, rooted in culture, teamwork, and pride.
