Finance minister, Professor Mthuli Ncube has posted on Twitter bragging that he is managing to spend what the government collects as revenue, something the country had been failing to do for a long time leading to budget deficit.

Former Finance minister during the inclusive government Tendai Biti is on record saying the government should eat what it kills and Ncube seems to be reading from the same script.

Mthuli Ncube has also hinted that they are targeting a budget deficit of less than five percent of the national budget.
