Harare has kicked off its provincial arm of the national resource mobilisation campaign to combat drug and substance abuse, as government intensifies efforts to protect Zimbabwe’s youth.
At a city hotel event, Information Minister Dr Jenfan Muswere reiterated the public’s role in ending the crisis, invoking the national maxim, “Nyika Inovakwa Nevene Vayo”, a nation built by its own people. This launch follows President Mnangagwa’s July State House initiative, now being decentralised to provinces, districts, and wards.

The drive aims to mobilise funding for infrastructure, outreach, and rehabilitation efforts before the end of October 2025.
Defense Minister Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri chairs the Ministerial Taskforce overseeing the interventions, which have been devolved through provincial, district, and ward structures.
