Farai Dziva|The government is failing to purchase new anti-riot equipment because of sanctions.

This was said by Justice Minister Ziyambi Ziyambi last week.

Ziyambi made the remarks during a debate in Parliament on the Maintenance of Peace and Order Bill (MOPA).

“We need to upgrade our anti-riot equipment, and I submit that it is difficult for us in government at the moment to procure that riot equipment because of sanctions.

I submit that once the sanctions are removed and we can trade freely with anyone, that issue can be resolved,” said Ziyambi.

Analyst have questioned behind the government’s list of priorities at a time the majority of the people are grappling with the biting economic challenges.
