Terrence Mawawa|Traditional leaders are pushing the government to pamper them with more hefty perks – including WiFi connection to their respective homesteads.

While the country’ s economy is plummeting with each passing day the traditional leaders are determined to siphon the remaining funds from the already dry state coffers.

Furthermore it is not clear whether all traditional leaders are computer literate.

Several traditional leaders told Masvingo Provincial State Minister Ezra Chadzamira in a meeting last week they were eager to embrace the new communication technology era.

The traditional leaders also demanded new houses and sugarcane plots in the Lowveld.
