Ministers lying to ED: Economist

GOVERNMENT critic and economist Gift Mugano on Saturday took a dig at President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration saying his ministers were misinforming their leader on the state of the economy.

This follows Mnangagwa’s announcement during the State of the Nation Address (Sona) that the Zimbabwe’s mining and health care sectors had witnessed a tremendous improvement.

Mugano, who was booted out of the Zimtrade board last week, said the figures presented by Mnangagwa were contrary to the reality on the ground.
