Your tax pays civil servants: Zimra

OFFICIALS from the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) yesterday delivered a blunt message to civil servants and Karoi’s business community that their salaries depend on the taxes paid by workers.

The officials told participants at a National Tax Awareness Campaign in Karoi yesterday that if citizens default, teachers, nurses and soldiers will go unpaid.

Claitus Munhande, Zimra communication and advocacy officer on tax education programmes, told SMEs, farmers, business community, artisanal miners and traders at a Hurungwe tax education workshop that it is everyone’s duty to pay taxes.
