Farai Dziva|MDC A councillor for ward seven Masvingo Urban Constituency, Richard Musekiwa has challenged the Zanu PF government to “treat civil servants with utmost respect.”

Musekiwa urged the government to consider the important role played by civil servants in the country.

He said:”I understand the salaries of civil servants in Zimbabwe are around £30 which means a prisoner in a UK jail, who by the way earns £10 a week, earns more than a civil servant in Zimbabwe.

Pathetic indeed, now does this mean that being in jail in the Uk is better than being a police officer in Zimbabwe?”
