Jane Mlambo| Opposition MDC Economic Secretary, Eddie Cross has dashed to the defence of President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration and Finance Minister Professor Mthuli Ncube saying their economic policies are bearing fruits.

In an interview with ZBC, Cross also said the bond note is the strongest currency in Africa.

The surrogate bond note has been widely condemned for extinguishing the economy after chasing away the little foreign currency that remained in the market.

“The underlying economy is growing. Exports are growing. The fundamentals are strong. The bond note is the strongest “currency” in the SADC region because it is a currency. This indicates the underlying strength of the Zimbabwe economy despite the current problems..”Eddie Cross
