ZBC ordered to pay Muchechetere $2 million

ZBC faces a liability of close to $2 million after former Chief Executive Officer Happison Muchechetere won his arbitration case against the State broadcaster.

Muchechetere was awarded his full salary and benefits dating back to November 2013 when he was sent on forced leave. Before he was sent on leave, Muchechetere would get all his money as his earnings were lawful.

Muchechetere said the ministry was trying to harass him after failing to prove a case against him and the $58 million suit that was published in a local daily was largely a ploy to keep delaying the processes.
