By A Correspondent| The government is reportedly lining up funds to bump up civil servants salaries to cushion them from the daily cost of living which is going up on a daily basis, the state media reports.

This was reportedly said by Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube on Friday speaking on the sideline of the SADC Anti sanctions day. Mthuli said:

We are going to have another adjustment as I speak, then we are going to pay the bonus in November. So we are doing our best in gradually supporting civil servants

Civil servants have been imploring the govt to review their salaries for long with doctors on strike since 3 September and teachers saying they now report for duty in casual clothes twice per week.
