INDUSTRY and Commerce Minister Professor Welshman Ncube, who is also the leader of the Movement for Democratic Chnage, will next week visit the Bulawayo business community to clear the confusion on the de-stressed companies fund.

The fund, which he sourced has been subject to controversy which has seen finance minister Tendai Biti acting up as if he and his party facilitated its availability.

Minister Biti who belongs to the Movement for Democratic Change formation led by Prime Mnister Morgan Tsvangirai was a fortnight ago undressed by Zanu PF Politburo member, Sithembiso Nyoni for deliberately not mentioning Prof Ncube during the launch of the fund.

In a statement posted on his facebook wall, the youth secretary general of the Prof Ncube led MDC, Discent Collins Bajila wrote yesterday:

"Updated MDC Outreach Programme 26-30 October 2011. 26 - Bull donation at Nyandeni Village Gwanda. 27 - Engaging the Religious Leadership in Bulawayo at Unlimited Connect Centre. 28 - Rally at Nesigwe Village in Nkayi. 29 Rally in Siganda Village in Bubi. 30 - Rally at Magwegwe Hall. President Welshman Ncube will also meet the Business Community to clear the confusion on the distressed fund. Details will be availed tomorrow..." he wrote in full.

However further details have not been availed as per the above undertaking.
