This comes at a time when Norton MP, Mnangagwa and Mutasa’s nephew Temba Mliswa says President Emmerson Mnangagwa must take back the finance ministry from Finance minister Mthuli Ncube as the former Finance Minister Patrick Chinamasa was far much better.
At the same time four RBZ Directors were suspended yesterday on allegations of crimes ranging from off-the-books bond notes to corrupt allocation of foreign currency and running a foreign currency cartel.

RBZ governor John Panonetsa Mangudya, in a statement, said the apex bank had noted the “allegations of impropriety”, adding: “The bank has found it necessary, for the sake of transparency and good corporate governance, that the allegations be followed through and investigated in line with the bank’s employment code of conduct.
