Republican Front (Zimbabwe)

The Republican Front was a political party in Zimbabwe in the 1980s, led by Ian Smith as the continuation of the Rhodesian Front.

The name change came on 6 June 1981 as an attempt to distance itself from its policies of the past.

[1] On 23 July 1984 it was renamed the Conservative Alliance of Zimbabwe.

At that time the party, which had started with an all-white membership, tried to appeal to black members, as well as black voters who wished to oppose the policies of the Robert Mugabe government.
