AfDB officer-in-charge, Belinda Chesire handed over the buses to National Assembly Speaker Jacob Mudenda and Senate President Mabel Chinomona at the old Parliament building.

Chesire said the bank would continue supporting Parliament's oversight role.

“The procurement of minibuses demonstrates a key level for successful implementation of projects partnering Parliament of Zimbabwe,” Chesire said.

”In Zimbabwe, AfDB is supporting the country to embark on a long-term path of sustained and inclusive economic growth and diversification through two key priority areas: enhancing the productive capacity and resilience of the private sector including in mining and agriculture value chains, improving good governance and enhancing accountability.”

Mudenda said: “It is a pleasant day for us to be recipients of a very important mode of transportation.

“These buses are being donated to us at a very critical time because soon we will be moving to the new Parliament in Mt Hampden and our staff will have to be there on time.”
