Zimbabwe's government has renamed Mbudzi roundabout to Trabablas Interchange, honoring President Emmerson Mnangagwa's liberation war name. This move follows a pattern of renaming streets and roads after Mnangagwa, who is rumored to seek a third term despite constitutional limits.
The Zanu PF-led government has dropped the original name of Mbudzi roundabout and retitled it Trabablas Interchange, President Emmerson Mnangagwa's nom-de-guerre during the country's liberation war. In recent years, government has renamed streets and roads after Mnangagwa, who is rumoured to harbour ambitions of running for a third presidential term, although he has publicly spurned overtures by party organs to stay beyond his second and final term that ends in 2028.
The government argues renaming the roadworks Trabablas after Mnangagwa's liberation war name was a gesture of recognising the unmatched development trajectory on which he has put Zimbabwe. Addressing journalists in Harare at a post-Cabinet briefing Tuesday, Information Minister, Jenfan Muswere said that the name change, proposed by Justice Minister Ziyambi Ziyambi as the acting chairperson of the Cabinet Committee on Place Names, had been approved. 'Cabinet wishes to advise that upon completion, the Mbudzi Interchange will be named 'Trabablas Interchange' in recognition of the visionary leadership of His Excellency the President Cde Dr Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa,' Muswere said.

He said the Cabinet also received and approved the renaming of Headquarters 1 Infantry Brigade, Headquarters Bulawayo District and Zimbabwe School of Infantry Army Barracks, which was presented by Ziyamb
