By Farai D Hove | Permanent Secretary Nick Mangwana who claimed hotels are unwilling to take in returnees, was left tight lipped Wednesday when several hotels announced the very opposite.

The development was exclusively covered by ZimEye.com since Monday as this network exposed the abuse of 35 UK returnees.

The latest drama comes as Chinese visitors are being unleashed onto the community by government and granted self quarantine treatment luxuries, while Zimbabweans are confined to waterless-toilet dungeons the likes of Belvedere Teachers College.

Last night Mangwana announced saying, “the cruise ship employer of fellow Zimbabweans housed at Belvedere has now offered to meet hotel bills for them.

“Hotels not keen, citing the risk of a ”Covid Hotel” label. We are expecting about 50 more cruise ship returnees.”

But the state media reports how several hotels have done the opposite, to take in the same victims.
