Tinoonga Mawere (News of the South)- Harare- Former Finance Minister Tendai Biti has blamed ” a corrupt system” for triggering the economic crisis in the country.
” It’s one thing for a regime to be
incompetent , corrupt and clueless.
The system is driven by aggrandizement, patronage and arbitrage.
“In the same period the regime has totally mismanaged th economy.Fiscal indiscipline has unleashed a huge budget deficit and the domestic debt now exceeds external debt .
Corruption is rampant and the citizen has been punished with massive #taxes , #levies and
hyperinflation .”
“Since Nov 2017 Mnanagwa has waged a vicious war against democracy and human rights.
Political space has been closed,the media muzzled and the internet shut down .We have seen murders , rape ,assaults mass trials and the rise of an unrestrained securocracy,” Biti tweeted.
