So yu want them to work on wheelchairs? So war yu can o bush in wheelchair? This only applies in zim 

yes anokwanisa 20 years of service is pensionable in the uniformed forces but one can continue up to 60 if not a war vet and war vets up to 65 that is if not a commissioned officer.But for commissioned officers they can continue to70 and 75 for war vets as well

mubvunzo wangu wozoti koo zviya zvekuti wese akwanisa 20 years anokwanisa kuyenda kumudya ndigere zvichiripo here?

I'm sure the war veterans mentioned here aren't those who fought the war of the 70s, but, those of future wars. Anyone who fights in any war becomes a war vet like those who took part in Congo war

A war vet who was 25 yrs old in 1980 would be 70 in 2025. I smell a rate. I think this increase in retirement age is not in good faith. If a civil servant or a member of the security sector die still serving but having gone beyond pensionable service or age  his family will only receive half the pension. Raising the retirement age is for them to die at work

Really. An army of soldiers that are 60 and over.How good is 60 year old army man.Zvimwe itai mafunga varume.ED is buying allegiance and loyalty for personal reasons but that will compromise efficiency. Humans are less efficient in old age.An army of 60 year old is the same as having no army.Handeyi tione

These guys are doing it for their 2030 mantra where they would be very old.i hope this government should be replaced and this madness stopped.

**** third grade Zimbabwean what no go area is the Zim army a match to jihadists no wonder why Zimbabweans will for ever suffer cowards to a useless security which can be breached using latest technology......I pity them 

Pasi Pamera Ziso 

Usanyepere vanhu kkkk, chii chingativhundutsa pane zvirikuitika ku Mozambique. We can never lose sleep over security breaches due to Mozambican problems, we have lived decades with Matsangaise knocking on our porous border achiti kana akasvika pedyo neborder reZimbabwe neMozambique kana anga akadhakwa anoita sober opfeka skirt oisa make up ofamba achitengesa mafreezit. They know that Zimbabwe is no go area and that Zimbabweans are too busy to copy the way Mozambicans solve their problems. We are busy preparing for schools reopening. We have enough personal problems to last us three life times and confronting the government is not on the list. 

Indeed they are!!!😁😁😁 those useless fools you call a government stealing from the poor,killing and opposition to their thieving **** asses the President smells ampits so imagine a county run along those lines

War Veteran 

Ed's pillar of strength is General Valerieo Sibanda who was set to retire very soon that's the reason of all this 

Ediots

The gvt just doesnt want to pay for retirement. In Zimbabwe we havent been able to raise our lifespan due to economic hardship, poor health facilities, etc. Zanu has figured out that a lot of civil servants die before they attain that retirement age and what you know its savings on the part of gvt. its no love, its no love at all

With no people retiring, it is the youth, the 77% who will be disadvantaged. What is it that we have achieved which warrants the upward adjustment of the retirement age?

The government has increased the retirement age for members of the uniformed forces. According to Statutory Instrument (SI) 198 of 2024, the retirement age for regular soldiers is now 55, up from 50.
Members can extend their service up to 60 years, and up to 65 years if they are war veterans. For Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) commissioned officers, the retirement age is now 65, with an option to stay up to 70 years of age.
These changes will take effect from 1 January 2025. The SI states:
<blockquote>
IT is hereby notified that the Minister of Defence, in terms of section 113 of the Defence Act [Chapter 11:02], and after consultation with the Defence Forces Service Commission, has made the following regulations:-
1. These regulations may be cited as the Defence (Regular Force) (Non-Commissioned Members) (Amendment) Regulations, 2024 (No. 8). 
2025.
2. These regulations shall come into effect on the 1st January,
3. The Defence (Regular Force) (Non-Commissioned Members) Regulations, 1989, published in Statutory Instrument 172 of 1989, are amended in section 18 (“Retirement”) by the repeal of subsections (4), (5) and (6) and the substitution of-
“(4) A permanent member shall, whatever the length of his or her pensionable service, retire on attaining the age of fifty-five years:
Provided that-
(a) if the Minister, on the recommendation of the Commander, considers that it is desirable in the public interest, he or she may allow that member to continue to serve for a period of five years until he or she attains the age of sixty years; or
(b) if that member is allowed to continue to serve in terms of paragraph (a), the Commander may, on giving twelve months’ written notice to the member of his or her intention to do so, require him or her to retire before he or she has served that period.
(5) A member who has continued to serve in terms of proviso (a) to subsection (4) shall retire on attaining the age of sixty years:
Provided that a member who is a war veteran shall continue to serve for further periods, not exceeding twelve months at a time, until he or she attains the age of sixty-five years.
(6) A member who has continued to serve in terms of subsection (5) shall retire on attaining the age of sixty-five years.”

The government has made a new rule saying soldiers can now retire when they are older. Regular soldiers can retire at 55, but can work until they're 60 or 65 if they want. Leaders in the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) can retire at 65 but can work until they're 70 if they choose. These rules start on January 1, 2025. Soldiers can keep working longer if they are needed.
