Mugabe in dilemma
12 Mar 2015 at 08:00hrs | Views
The cash strapped government is expected to pump out at least US$54 million in funding unbudgeted for by-elections occasioned by the bitter infighting within the main political parties which has since spilled into Parliament.
Indications are that by-elections would be unavoidable in at least 27 constituencies currently under the MDC-T dominion.
It is estimated that out of the 160 Zanu-PF MP's and 37 senators more than half of them are aligned to the ousted Mujuru.
The by-election will inflict further stress on the fiscus which is already struggling to fund salaries for the 230 000 strong civil service.
