By Own Correspondent- Local government minister July Moyo has said government had put in place mechanisms to ensure that all donations received for Tropical Cyclone Idai victims are recorded and accounted for to ensure transparency and accountability.

He urged those donating to coordinate with government officials on the ground in order to ensure that donations are distributed equally among the affected.

Said Moyo:

“As donations continue coming, we have coordinated ourselves and established mechanisms to ensure that everything that we receive is accounted for.

Our job is to make sure that reconciliations are done in a transparent manner. Anybody who wants to see what has been received can do so because these donations are coming from the public.

We want people to know that we are transparent, accountable and can balance what we have been given and dispatched.”
