A Zimbabwean based in South Africa has said the level of corruption prevailing in the country is a cause for concern for the economic crisis faced nation.

Mbonisi Gumbo said Zimbabwe's level of corruption has gone too far it is dis heartening to note that the Marvo issue has not attracted the attention of the government despite the suffering and the pathetic situation Marvo workers found themselves in.

"Ever since Zimbabwe adopted the use of multi currency Marvo workers have never benefited despite the fact that they continue to go to work on empty stomach, on foot to and from work daily it is now 28 months continuously without pay in edition to the fact that ever since 2009 workers have not been paid," said Gumbo. "The situation at Marvo is bad in any case the kind of behavior being exhibited by Marvo management and Shareholders is in itself a cause for concern Companies like Marvo are themselves a National security threat."

Gumbo said he  believe such groups like Boko Haram,Alshabab, or secessionists among many other such groups they are created and joined by hungry, desperate and angry people in most cases.

"Therefore the government must be thorough in making sure that the rule of Law is respected at all time," said Gumbo.

"Ungezwa umuntu sesithi okungasi kufa yikuphi wena usesikhundleni? You must get worried. People like Valela, Mazengeza and Mashamba in a normal Country should be tried in a Court of Law these people have blood in their hands they have killed people and the Justice system have failed us. We need people's support as we fight our good cause for justice at Marvo sifuna imali zethu no more no less."
