Mnangagwa Calls On NUST To Be Innovative For National Development

President Emmerson Mnangagwa called on the National University of Science and Technology (NUST) and other institutions of higher learning to be innovative to make the country more productive and achieve an upper middle-income status by 2030. He was speaking at the 24th graduation ceremony at NUST. Mnangagwa said

I encourage NUST not to deviate from its mandate as it is the bedrock for new business models, innovation and technology. You must instead appropriately respond to regional and global developments, coupled with our present national focus, by developing new learning modules suitable for both present and future needs.
We look to institutions of higher learning to help us modernise, mechanise and develop our agriculture irrigation infrastructure as well as the manufacturing, mining infrastructure and service sectors.
