A storm is brewing in the Central Intelligence Organisation over salary disparities and general conditions of service, putting spymaster Happyton Bonyongwe under presser ahead of elections later this year, the Independent reported.
Intelligence sources said senior CIO officers from the position of provincial intelligence officers to directors were given hefty salary adjustments, a move that has riled poorly paid ordinary officers.
Meanwhile, a former Air force deputy commander Henry Muchena is reported to have embarked on a whirlwind tour of provinces instructing Zanu-PF district executives to launch door-to-door campaigns to ensure the party romps to victory in the forthcoming elections.
Muchena, who retired from the Air force to head the Zanu-PF commissariat department, started his provincial visits at the weekend in Bulawayo where he held a tense inter-district meeting at Davies Hall.
