MDC-T ministers looted from treasury

Opposition MDC and MDC-T ministers in the then Government of National Unity (GNU) lost connection with the poor when they started dipping their hands into the Zanu PF gravy train, a former Cabinet minister has said.

Former National Healing minister Moses Mzila-Ndlovu, speaking at a Heal Zimbabwe Trust public meeting on healing and reconciliation, said the opposition became interested in luxuries dished out by the government and immediately lost touch with reality.

Ndlovu said while the opposition was vocal against the frequent travels by President Robert Mugabe, alleging this drained Treasury, once inside, they also became obsessed with travelling.

But former ICT minister Nelson Chamisa said while he never travelled much during his days in government, he was unaware of any such huge financial pickings.
