Zimbabwe's Vice President Mohadi has called on the country's young people to transform the opportunities available to them into jobs, Herald.co.zw reported on Friday.
According to Herald.co.zw, the Vice President made the remarks in a message directed at Zimbabwean youth. The report did not include further details of the speech or the venue where the call was made.
The appeal places youth employment at the centre of the message, with Mohadi framing opportunity as something young people should convert into work rather than simply receive, according to Herald.co.zw.
Zimbabwe's youth face limited formal employment prospects, a challenge that has drawn repeated attention from officials. The Vice President's remarks, as reported by Herald.co.zw, position job creation as a task for young people themselves, working from the openings already before them.
The report from Herald.co.zw did not specify which opportunities Mohadi was referring to, nor did it outline any new government programme or policy to accompany the call.
What to watch next: whether Zimbabwe's government follows the Vice President's message with concrete measures aimed at youth employment, and how young people and youth organisations respond to the call.
