*SA Offers Zim $7 Million After Turning Down $1,2 Billion Request* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?im The South African government is working on extending a short-term credit facility to Zimbabwe in the region of R100-million (US$7 211 600,92). This was revealed by South Africa’s Finance Minister Tito Mboweni in an interview with The Daily Maverick. The credit facility comes after South Africa refused to offer Zimbabwe a $1,2 billion bailout package in a separate request. The Daily Maverick report reads in part: ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

The extension of this facility depended on Zimbabwe being able to provide further collateral. Mboweni insisted that Zimbabwe had always repaid its loans under this facility in the past. Concerning the $1,2 billion requested by Zimbabwe and was turned down by South Africa, South Africa’s Treasury spokesperson, Jabulani Sikhakhane said: > There was a meeting in December where a request for $1,2 billion was made and obviously South Africa does not have that kind of money. It (the meeting) could have been towards the end of December (2018) around the 20th or somewhere there. We don’t have the money, it is just that simple. Since assuming office in November 2017, President Mnangagwa has reportedly failed to get any form of financial bailout from China or Russia. *Related:* *South Africa Plans To Extend Short-Term Credit To Zimbabwe; Ramaphosa, Mnangagwa In Constant Touch – Mboweni* *“We Don’t Have That Kind Of Money”, SA Speaks On Zimbabwe’s $1.2 Billion Request* *More: Newsday* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
