Addressing a chartered accountants meeting in Kariba, Businessman-cum-politician Phillip Chiyangwa called for early elections.
He says the current tensions in government are affecting economic growth and the solution is to urgently have polls so the nation could concentrate on developing the country.
"Early polls would create a conducive environment for national growth, contrary to what other business players believe" Chiyangwa said.
He said Zimbabwe will be so good economically once democratic elections are held and incumbents are no longer headlines of newspapers.
He believes that the urgent dispensation of elections will make business sense as the economic future is embedded in the political matrix as business and politics could not be divorced.
