Urgent solution must be obtained to avoid Zim sinking - policy analyst

A Bulawayo based policy analyst Butler Tambo has advised the government to come up with urgent solutions to the crumbling economy in order to avoid Zimbabwe sinking in terms of economy.

The remarks come in the wake of government failing to pay civil servants their December salaries in time to a point when the rest of the workers were [promised to get their pay on January 5 2016.

"With the postulations that I made that by mid 2016 the government of Zimbabwe will not be able to pay its civil servants already coming true a few weeks after I made them judging by the December 2015 salaries already being pushed to 5 January 2016 one can only imagine how gory 2016 is likely to be," he said.

"A re-think of how we run our economy as a country has to be devised fast to avoid sinking this ship called Zimbabwe."
