Terrence Mawawa|President Emmerson Mnangagwa has bemoaned what he has described as the lack of commitment towards social delivery services by MDC run local authorities.

Speaking at a luncheon hosted by the Local Government Ministry in Harare today Mnangagwa said: “We have to move forward as a nation but sadly there is no transparency in our local authorities.

I wish to urge local authorities to commit themselves to the delivery of proper and standard social services.

Some of the problems and challenges we are facing emanate from poor administration and corruption.”

“As I have always said let us shelve our political differences.How can the nation move forward if we fail to separate politics from development? This means our local authorities have to complement our efforts to provide decent accommodation for our citizenry,” said Mnangagwa.
