Former ZBC presenter Eric 'The General' Knight has challenged President Emmerson Mnangagwa to ensure that the law is not applied selectively on corrupt top government officials.
"The commitment by ED's government to bring in to book perpetrators in corruption in Zimbabwe is indeed a very necessary undertaking Mr President, if we are to really turn around this country.
"People must be tried and of course account for some of the ridiculous wealth they have accumulated over the years BUT, the move will not look genuine to the eye if 'obvious' looters and thieves are left scot-free," he said.
"Please sir, let there be no selective justice. Thieves are and looters are there, right by your nose, not far. No names as I am not a Court of Law, but its not about names, its about people.
"Such people must never be seen anywhere near government, they are cancerous. It has been spoken, let there be action!
"Corruption is definitely accountable for perhaps half of Zimbabwe's economic problems."
