Civil service rot- Mugabe must resign
The MDC is utterly shocked by revelations of massive looting, corruption and abuse of public funds by the civil service commission amounting to billions of dollars annually for several years. As a party we are convinced that this monstrous oversight is enough grounds for President Robert Mugabe to step down. Zimbabweans have just been subjected to a grand theft by their own government and it is time to put a stop to it.
Firstly, the deterioration of corporate governance and accountability in the civil service has played a huge contributing factor to this country’s economic crisis, considering that the civil service wage bill was said to be gobbling over 80 percent of the national purse annually, while in actual fact half of this percentage was being stolen. Secondly, it has become increasingly apparent that there are a number of political considerations motivating the corruption and rot in the public service, all at the expense of the ordinary and suffering Zimbabweans.
It is worrying that as Zimbabwe is confronted with an unprecedented level of corruption, rot and decay, the government continues to loot public funds to fund a ZANU PF patronage system which continues to threaten the stability and prosperity of our nation. And if ZANU PF cadres continue to do as they wish with public resources and funding, without being held accountable for their actions, then the reality is that tomorrow will be far worse than today. Of late we have been waking up to stunning revelations of corruption involving billions of dollars and surprisingly there is no will to act on this vice by President Mugabe and his government. We still await to see action being taken over the 15 billion diamond money that disappeared.
The mandate of the national constitution has been abandoned in practice and substituted with the abuse of the state machinery through nepotism and corruption. If as Zimbabweans we continue to let our guard down, ZANU PF will continue to take this country on a downward slope.

Tsvangirai did visit Marange and he said everything was above board. A few weeks after his Marange visit he was on Sea Cruise Ship with some mistress living it up. He certainly could not afford the trip but we can guess who paid for it.
Yes Biti complained that government was not getting all the revenue from the diamonds but did nothing else because he did not want to risk annoying Mugabe, the “unflappable father of the nation”, he called the tyrant.
Of course Tsvangirai, Biti and the rest of the MDC leaders could have stop the Zanu PF rot during the GNU but elected to do nothing. Of course, they sold-out! It is a great disappointment that there should be so many MDC apologists who still refuse to accept this simple political reality!

Remember Tsvangirayi the Prime Minister was denied access to Marange diamonds fields. The system is being run by the securocrat cabal under Dzasukwa’s tutelage. Biti was very adamant during his tenure as FM that little or no money was being realised from the Marange diamonds.

Ncube play his part in this looting during the GNU!
Chihwayi the $15 billion was looted in the last 7 years and so 5 of these years Professor Ncube was in government and one of the ministers; why have you not asked him what happened?
