By Own Correspondent| Self exiled former minister of Higher and Tertiary Education Professor Jonathan Moyo has described Acting President Constantino Chiwenga’s utterances that the President cannot appoint ministers until parliamentarians have been sworn in as utter nonsense.
Professor Moyo also said Chiwenga’s claims that outgoing ministers still have the mandate to hold their previous portfolios and execute ministerial duties is contempt of the law.
Said Professor Moyo:
"Chiwenga speaks on cabinet"#Herald
Chiwenga is full of hot air.
1. It's not law but nonsense to say a president can not appoint a cabinet before MPs are sworn in.
2. Chiwenga's claim that former ministers are still ministers is contempt for the law!https://t.co/PwFM3mlja8 pic.twitter.com/yTAlYYlQva
