Said Marange:<\/p>\n<p>We will continue working together with Government because the leadership respects churches.<\/p>\n<p>As Johane Marange followers, we were humbled by President Mnangagwa\u2019s gesture of being with us during our Passover gathering.<\/p>\n<p>This shows that he respects the church and we want to assure Government and the ruling ZANU PF of our unwavering support.<\/p>\n<p>We also have a role to play in the economic development of this country, hence our investments in the education and agriculture sectors.<\/p>\n<p>Our relationship with Government and ZANU PF is well documented and we are seeing a lot of infrastructural developments across the country.<\/p>\n<p>We recently received computers and printers from President Mnangagwa and we are forever grateful for that.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, Mnangagwa promised to work closely with the apostolic sect, especially in the education sector. He said:<\/p>\n<p>As a politician, I have never addressed a gathering as big as this one. The discipline exhibited by the pilgrims gathered here is out of this world.<\/p>\n<p>I want to assure everyone here present that we will continue working together with the new High Priest Nimrod Taguta.<\/p>\n<p>I used to wonder why my late friend, High Priest Noah Taguta who passed away recently, always moved around with High Priest Nimrod, but I now understand that he was the chosen one.<\/p>\n<p>People should not look at the youthful High Priest\u2019s stature because he has God\u2019s blessings.<\/p>\n<p>I can be the President of this country, but I am under the High Priest and l respect him.<\/p>\n<p>As Government, we will continue working with the church because it has a role to play in ensuring peace and development in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Many people of my age are long gone because of various reasons, but I will continue respecting the church leadership.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
