ZACC in possession of more evidence against Chivayo

The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) is advancing its investigation into a case of alleged money laundering and abuse of office involving businesspersons Wicknell Chivayo, Mike Chimombe, and Moses Mpofu.

The case concerns a contractual dispute over the supply of election materials to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission.

ZACC Chairman Michael Reza indicated that although the trio has not yet come forward, substantial documentary evidence has been collected to build a strong case for court proceedings.

ZACC spokesperson Thandiwe Mlobane noted that the commission had reviewed a letter and audio recordings linked to the case, implicating the individuals in money laundering and abuse of office. Additionally, the Presidential Goats Scheme, mentioned in one of the audios, is also under scrutiny.

Mr. Reza assured the public that ZACC is actively pursuing the investigation without bias, emphasizing the commission's commitment to tackling corruption. He warned that if the involved parties do not present themselves voluntarily, ZACC will seek them out.

Mr. Reza reaffirmed ZACC's determination to leave no stone unturned and highlighted President Emmerson Mnangagwa's stance that there are no "sacred cows" in the fight against corruption.
