Corruption: Zanu-PF Launches Commission of Inquiry

President Mnangagwa will set up a commission of inquiry into allegations of corruption levelled against ordinary citizens, senior ZANU-PF members and Government officials.

This follows the bold decision by the Zanu-PF Youth League to name people accused corruption in the country.

Speaking at a Press briefing after the 330th Ordinary Session of the Politburo in Harare yesterday, ZANU-PF Secretary for Information and Publicity Cde Simon Khaya Moyo said the President will set up a commission of inquiry to investigate the corruption allegations.

“The Press statement by the Zanu-PF national youth executive league on corruption allegations at a Press conference on Monday was debated by Politburo members extensively centring mainly on corruption.

“Several members of the Politburo made their observations and contributions. Whilst the Youth League may not have followed proper procedures in issuing their statement on Monday, there was urgent need to pronounce at all levels zero tolerance on corruption,” said Cde Khaya Moyo.

The Politburo, Cde Khaya Moyo said, discussed extensively on the need to call for zero tolerance on corruption which is bleeding the country’s economy.
