I Will Serve Only One Term If Elected As President: Joice Mujuru

Leader of the National People’s Party (NPP) Joice Mujuru has declared that she will only serve a single term as president if elected in the upcoming 2018 elections. According to Mujuru, her generation has done enough and should pass on the baton to younger people. Addressing supporters at a rally Mujuru said,

Look now where the country is now; they have run out of ideas of how to take the country forward in the 21st century. If I win the forthcoming elections I will serve for one term hand over to someone young within the ranks to take the party to take it to the next level… he or she needs to be responsible with a credible record, not those who think a political career is about being corrupt, abusing office and forgetting their responsibilities. So, we are saying, in most constituencies, let the youths be given a chance to lead because they are leaders now not tomorrow.

Mujuru will be running against President Emmerson Mnangagwa, Nelson Chamisa, Nkosana Moyo and Noah Manyika among others.
