‘Ignore Mugabe As He Is Never Serious About Fighting Corruption’-Jabulani Sibanda

 

PRESIDENT Robert Mugabe should not be taken seriously when he talks about fighting corruption as he has never been sincere, former war veteran’s leader Jabulani Sibanda has  said.
Sibanda said Mugabe has instead allowed it to thrive under his watch.

Sibanda said Mugabe  if full of  hypocrisy and has on countless occasions failed to act when presented with full evidence.

Speaking to Bulawayo journalist last week, Sibanda said Mugabe ignored a tip off from former South African president, Thabo Mbeki.

Mugabe said he once received a complaint from Mbeki that unnamed ministers had demanded bribes of up to $10 million from South Africa’s African National Congress -linked companies keen on investing  in the mining sector.

“During the Gweru conference (in 2012), Mugabe said any minister fingered in corruption, as reported by Mbeki, that minister will not be a member of the next government”

“We were moving towards elections and as you know after elections, a new cabinet is sworn in.

“He did not say, “I will constitute and institute a commission of inquiry to investigate the allegations coming from person in the level of a president.

“He did not say the police are going to investigate those ministers, since names had been given. He did not say those people are going to prison and their property is going to be confiscated,”.

Sibanda cast doubt on Mugabe’s sincerity when he lamented the $15 billion losses in expected diamond revenues  during his traditional 21st February Movement  interview. Source-Southern Eye
