10 August 2015 Last updated at 23:27 BST

Zimbabwe’s President, Robert Mugabe, warned about economic struggle as he spoke at the National Heroes Day parade, which commemorates the lives of those who died opposing British colonial rule.

The country’s economy has been in a downward spiral for more than a decade, which forces many of its people to seek alternative incomes.

BBC Africa correspondent Alastair Leithead reports from the capital Harare.
