Kasukuwere dribbles MDC-T dominated HCC

Saviour Kasukuwere Local Government Minister has finally had his way after the Harare City Council capitulated to an order compelling the cash-strapped municipality to have its books looked into by forensic auditors.

The development is seen preparing the ground for Kasukuwere to crack the whip on the local authority, as the last bastion of power for the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC-T).

The audit was first mooted in 2014 at the height of a salary scandal whereby Town House management was exposed for earning hefty salaries and perks while presiding over chaotic service delivery.

It, however, did not materialize amid reports that the city fathers were digging in their heels for fear of playing into ZANU-PF's hands
