*Plans To Build Second Fuel Pipeline For Zim Stoking Mnangagwa, Chiwenga Tension, Report Claims* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?ma A report claims that the alleged tension between President Emmerson Mnangagwa and his deputy Constantino Chiwenga has its genesis in the former’s plans to install a second pipeline to supply petroleum into the country and the control of the lucrative fuel industry in the country. Industry insiders and government officials allege that Mnangagwa has interests in the fuel industry through Zuva Petroleum. He is also said to be in favour of a second pipeline to the country, supposedly backed by SA company Mining Oil & Gas Services (Mogs), which would dismantle the extensive hold that businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei has on the country’s energy sector. Chiwenga is believed to have his own interests through Tagwirei CEO of Sakunda Energy. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- An official who spoke to the Financial Mail said > That is the major issue that sparked the tensions, because Tagwirei is being pushed out. When you look at it, there has also been the talk of a second pipeline, but we all know who refurbished [the current pipeline]. Economist John Robertson shred the view that the allocation of scarce foreign currency for fuel importation. Said Robertson > There are some government officials who are benefiting from existing arrangements and want to continue benefiting, and others who want a new arrangement that gives them a chance to benefit. There appears to be a serious conflict for the control of the fuel industry in the ranks of the ruling party. Bekezela Gumbo, the principal researcher at the Zimbabwe Democracy Institute said that the differences between Mnangagwa and Chiwenga over economic interests may threaten the long-term investment prospects for the country. > It is [said] that Tagwirei is a shadow [for] Chiwenga, essentially being used to secure Chiwenga’s interests — that’s the perception. It means Chiwenga and [Mnangagwa] are clashing economically through these fights to remove control of Tagwirei in the fuel industry. > This effectively means that Zimbabwe’s problems, including the fuel challenges, are a political problem. The problem is at the political apex and it’s affecting decision-making. The leadership is not seeing [eye to eye] … In the long term, it will destabilise the country. *Read Also:* Sakunda Holdings Closing Down Permanently Due To Years Of ‘Irrecoverable’ Losses *Zim Already Mortgaged To Sakunda Holdings: George Charamba* *We Made An Error, Zuva Service Stations Were Not Closed Down For Overcharging – Ministry Of Information* *Energy Minister Denies Sakunda Holdings Controls Fuel Industry, Explains Forex Allocation* *More: Financial Times* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
