Jabulani Sibanda is the chairman of Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association (ZNLWVA), an organization comprising all the veterans that fought during Rhodesia's Bush War. He was expelled from ZANU-PF in 2004 for being part of the Tsholotsho Declaration.

2008 general election

Robert Mugabe endorsement

Despite the fact that he was expelled and therefore not a member of ZANU-PF, Sibanda, together with his ally Joseph Chinotimba, led million-men marches across the country to endorse President Robert Mugabe as the candidate for ZANU-PF in the March 2008 presidential election. [War vet threaten hostilities [http://www.zimdaily.com/news/117/ARTICLE/2360/2008-02-08.html] (accessed 02/11/2008)] Following the success of the million-men marches, Jabulani was inducted as chairman of the war veterans with blessing from Mugabe. [Jabulani Sibanda to be eliminated [http://www.zimdaily.com/news/117/ARTICLE/2192/2007-10-02.html] (accessed 02/11/2008)] Mugabe at one time wanted Jabulani to be Matebeleland ZANU-PF chairman, an influential position, but heavyweights in the region refused to acquiesce to this.

Simba Makoni candidacy

Jabulani Sibanda, in his capacity as the chairman of the war veterans association, indicated that the former guerillas would go back into the bush if Mugabe lost the 2008 presidential election to Simba Makoni.
