By Own Correspondent- President Emmerson Mnangagwa has said government was not aware that the Zimbabwe National Road Administration (ZINARA) generates lots of revenue revealing that government was however not aware of where the generated income was being “taken to”.

Addressing delegates at the commissioning of the Ngundu- Tanganda highway, Mnangagwa said:

“We have a department called Zinara, which is under (Transport and Infrastructural Development) Minister (Joel) Matiza. When Minister Matiza was appointed to the ministry, he found Zinara in place.

All along we did not know that Zinara generates lots of revenue. We wonder where the money was going. We have resolved that money from tollgates must rehabilitate roads. As we speak, roads in all provinces are being rehabilitated by Zinara.

We asked them in all these years where was the revenue generated by Zinara going but we did not get any satisfactory response. No response, tonhooo! We will, however, not live in the past. We look forward. We are keeping our eyes on all money generated by parastatals.

It is not Zinara alone. There are other companies I will not mention. We are keeping an eye on them to see how they are using funds.”
