Chinhoyi fails to account for 6 700 litres of fuel

THE Municipality of Chinhoyi has failed to account for the missing 6 700 litres of fuel meant for road rehabilitation in the city, the National Assembly has heard.

This has resulted in the Zimbabwe National Roads Administration (Zinara) withholding funding for road works in Chinhoyi before acquittal of the missing fuel.

Chinhoyi lawmaker Leslie Mhangwa asked what measures were being taken by the Local Government and Public Works ministry to resolve the impasse between Zinara and Chinhoyi Municipality, which has resulted in non-remittance of road rehabilitation funds during the last two years.
