*Biti Asks Mthuli Ncube To Name "OTHERS" Where $463M+ Was Spent On* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?gc Former Finance Minister, advocate Tendai Biti, has demanded that Finance Minister, Professor Mthuli Ncube, explains the real use of the $448 million put under the “Others” category. Biti who chairs the Public Accounts Committee said that it does not make sense that at a time when the country has no energy, the minister used the money on unstated items. The MDC vice president noted: ---------- *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* *LATEST: itel S24 (128) $124; S24 (256GB) $159* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

Accounting for every cent becomes a critical issue for Zimbabwe particularly at this juncture when the country has a huge deficit in food, fuel, electricity and medicines.
