Workers’ unions have also criticised Ncube for not consulting them before he came up with the budget review. The Zimbabwe Secretary-General of the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions, Japhet Moyo, believes that the newly-reintroduced Zimbabwean dollar will be useless in three months, taking the country back to the 2007/08 scenario. *More: Zim Morning Post* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
