Investors were said to be in fright Wednesday as the ruling party ZANU PF appointed the controversial businessman Obert Mpofu as its new National Secretary for Finance.
The new post might see Mpofu who has not paid his own workers for more than 3 months, becoming Minister of Finance.
Obert Mpofu has a history of controversies with money and rumours have been rife that he has acquired much of his wealth from bribes. When questioned in court recently Mpofu replied saying he is too rich for bribes, “I am too rich for bribes,” he told top lawyer, Beatrice Mtetwa.
News readers rushed to the fore to complain on Mpofu’s appointment, “ihis mockery to the whole nation and mockery to the whole world,” one news reader commented Wednesday.
“He now has a chance to do what he wants with both party and national cash,” wrote a Glen View man only identified as Tafadzwa. Other surprise appointments were made on various posts. (READ MORE)

Sometimes you would think the way Bob chooses his men & women of authority is done in a way that is spiteful to the Zimbabweans….kuda kurwadzisa zvinosvika kumabhonzo…
He is the obedient son he knows how to steal with the first family and you are safe . Mai Mujuru had a powerful husband whom the first family feared and when he was eliminated she became vulnerable- because they were not giving tithe to the first family. ED has been tithing all the years and today his sweat has paid dividends.
There are no values in Zanupf. It is loyalty to Mugabe and his wife and being an asset to them. You are a good party member if you steal on their behalf. Robe the entire nation and surrender the loot to them or just the bulk of it or what they want then you can never be a thief. He must have given to Grace lots and lots of diamond loot hey!
The body of an elephant and the brains of a rat …….
