Chiwenga Vows to End Corrupt Business Deals in Zimbabwe
Acting President of Zimbabwe, General (Rtd) Dr. Constantino Chiwenga, has pledged to tackle the rampant corruption undermining the country’s economic progress.
With President Emmerson Mnangagwa currently on annual leave and expected to return in early February, Chiwenga took the opportunity to address pressing issues surrounding corruption and shady business deals during a recent public event.
While presiding over the triple burial ceremony for Major General (Rtd) Solomon Siziba, Chen Chimutengwende, and Ambassador John Shumba Mvundura at the National Heroes Acre on Wednesday, Chiwenga made a firm commitment to end the corrupt practices that are hindering Zimbabwe’s growth.
His words resonated with many as he condemned the detrimental effects of such deals on the nation’s economy.
“We are aware of the shady deals that are disrupting the growth of the economy and we say no to corruption,” Chiwenga stated. His remarks were a direct response to the persistent corruption that has plagued various sectors of the country, resulting in significant financial losses and an erosion of public trust in government institutions.
