Tajamuka demands swipe machines at toll gate

Social movement #Tajamuka/Sesijikile has demanded that the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) facilitates the installation of point-of-sale (POS) machines at tollgates dotted along the country's highways, as the cash shortages persist.

In a letter to RBZ governor, John Mangudya this week, Tajamuka/Sesijikile, who met the central bank boss over the impending introduction of bond notes last week, said the Zimbabwe National Roads Administration's (Zinara) continuous demand for motorists to pay cash at toll plazas was out of sync with reality.

Tajamuka/Sesijikile also demanded that Mangudya make a statement giving clarity on the use of plastic money.
