*Biti Condemns 'Sakunda Republic' & Vested Interests For Hiking Duty On Fuel* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?wo Former Finance Minister Tendai Biti has criticised the government for raising duties on fuel by over 100%. Biti argued that the timing was wrong as the country is under lockdown and the economy is in the middle of a recession. He said: ---------- *Latest itel S24 now available on Pindula* $124 Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo. WhatsApp: 0️⃣7️⃣8️⃣3️⃣ 4️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ 7️⃣9️⃣3️⃣ ---------- > Through SI 87 of 2020, the regime’s Min of Finance has raised duties on fuel by over 100%, making Zim fuel most expensive in the region. > The move comes at a time when the price of crude is coming down. It is irrational for regime to raise taxes in a recession & during a lockdown. > It is extremely insensitive to raise taxes when families are facing unprecedented challenges, unemployment, poverty, shortages, inflation, corruption, #COVID19. The move will spike inflation at a time when Zim has the second-highest level of world inflation at 570 %. > Duties are normally raised in the budget therefore continued governance by decrees is authoritarian and unprecedented. Other than greed and patronage, there is no logical basis for tax raise. > Vested interests by #SakundaRepublic and the handful of fuel barons in cabinet can’t punish Zimbabwe. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
