*Govt Releases $30 Million For Former Zisco Workers' Payouts* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?pj The government has finally paid former Zisco workers their retrenchment packages after they were laid off in 2016. This was revealed by Zisco acting board chairman Gift Mugano who said the government availed RTGS$30 million for the payouts, though the former workers demanded to be paid in US dollars.

The government is the major shareholder in the Redcliff-based steel maker which ceased operations in 2008 at the height of world-record hyperinflation. A Chinese investor, R and F, signed a US$1 billion deal with the government in 2017 to resuscitate Zisco. The deal has been on hold as there are negotiations on iron-ore claims that are yet to be completed. *More: Chronicle* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
