Joseph Kanyekanye, the head of the Confederation of Zimbabwe Industries (CZI) has taken a swipe at the country's political leaders for engaging in 'political supremacy' at the expense of economic growth as the country is set to have a budget deficit of US$ 700 million this year.

Kanyekanye, was addressing an annual congress of the businesses organisation.

He said political parties in government were more interested in political scores than the growth of the economy.

"Our politicians are engaged in mortal danger for political supremacy at the expense of our economic growth, industry viability and ultimately at great disservice to young generations," Kanyekanye told business leaders on Wednesday.
 
"We are a nation of elections, restructuring of parties, congresses and primaries between an election and outstanding issues. These elections about elections and election dissipate economic recovery efforts and create deep-seated anti-business policies and actions."
