In an interview with Business Weekly on Thursday, Matanda-Moyo insisted that the private sector is “very guilty” of corruption in Zimbabwe. She said: ---------- 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 ---------- > What is apparent is that corruption is not only rife in the public sector, it’s also rife in the private sector because when you look at bribes, the ones who are offering bribes are from the private sector. > They also bribe the public sector, taking advantage that public service salaries are low. > You look for something which is bought in South Africa for R5, that thing is sold here in Zimbabwe for US$100 and you wonder what pricing system is being used. > When you look at that person who is selling for US$100, the person has not even declared that product to the customs, the person has not paid duty …and you go to ZIMRA (Zimbabwe Revenue Authority) again, those companies are not paying taxes. > So, the private sector is the one that is very guilty of corruption in this country. Matanda-Moyo said there is a need for Government departments and parastatals to tighten procurement systems. She said the Public Procurement and Disposal of Public Assets Act should be tightened. Last month, it emerged that Parliament had approved the purchase of laptops for US$9 000 for each gadget. The laptop tender had been awarded to Blinart Investments, a private company believed to be owned by a Harare businesswoman, Elizabeth Muchenje. The tender was, however, revoked by Treasury. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
