A political commentator Mlungisi Dube has expressed dismay over the continued corruption which saw $15 billion disappearing and rampant poaching syndicates which see many of the special species being killed under the noses of the ruling Zanu PF.

"Whenever you see a headline each day your heart sinks as you read about Zanu PF corruption.You start wondering what will be left for the ordinary Zimbabwean after the massive looting?$15 billion dollars diamond revenue never remitted, poaching syndicates involving senior government ministers and top security officers, Senior Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) executives in smuggling scandals," " he said. "Senior Anti Corruption officers in implicated in corrupt deals."

Dube said energy tenders were being given to criminals without any trade references or known legitimate businesses and energy deals were being inflated by half a billion dollars obviously to cater for kickbacks for government officials.

"(President Robert) Mugabe was taking the only remaining Air Zimbabwe plane for his private trip. The list is endless.The only way out is tackling the regime head on, and sparing no means.We have a responsibility to stop this madness and get this country working.This is totally unacceptable," he said.
