via Sikhanyiso Ndlovu bemoans Zanu PF corruption – NewsDay Zimbabwe May 26, 2014
ZANU PF politburo member Sikhanyiso Ndlovu has bemoaned corruption in the country especially among his party colleagues, saying the scourge threatened to destroy the former liberation movement.
Addressing members of the Bulawayo Press Club on Saturday, Ndlovu, who is also the Zanu PF Bulawayo political head, said corruption had reached alarming levels among Zanu PF members.
“When we were in the war, we never thought that some of our colleagues would turn out to be so corrupt,” Ndlovu said.
‘The looting; the corruption is so much so alarming to an extent that it leaves you wondering what one would be thinking. You wonder how they consume their loot and keep on looting. This corruption is a cancer that can destroy Zanu PF if it is not stopped. We should stop it now.”
Zanu PF leader President Robert Mugabe has on several occasions threatened to ensure the culprits were charged and jailed, but most suspects, especially those connected to the ruling party, have gone scot free.
Shocking cases of widespread corruption have been exposed at several State institutions, including the public broadcaster, Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) and Air Zimbabwe, among others.
A recent survey by Transparency International rated Zimbabwe as among the most corrupt nations in southern Africa.
According to the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority, the country was losing billions of dollars to corruption annually.

Splitting my sides with laughter !!!!!!! Were not idiots
We all know ZANUPF=CORRUPTION just like 1 plus 1 is 2. It started a few months after mugabe took over in 1980 and has escalated ever since. Billions gone and stolen. So much unaccounted for. ZANUPF only went to war to enrich themselves, anyone who stood in the way like JT gets eliminated. They used the vets like cannon fodder. Wasted lives believing a band of thugs.
Ndlovu, you are Zanu, do something about and don’t tell us what we know. Just clean up the mess you created.
As if you can!!
agree the right way is to go
He is probably not getting anything these days. If he is clean as he sound he must do the honorable thing and resign then joins MDCT to save the country. He is probably talking about his friend Mpofu.
Sikhanyiso is just a nsanangapho. Suka lapha!!
He is more concerned about the imploding of his gukurahundi party ZANU PF than that of the country; what kind of national leadership is this?
What happens to ZANU PF is irrelevant and its of no consequence or significance. Infact if it impodes, the better for the country, the Southern African region, Africa and us all!!
We should be more concerned about what this corruption is doing to the country, its economy and its development – not this CONGREGATION of gukurahundis they call ZANU PF!!
he would have benefited from this corruption over the years, so yes do something about it don’t just bemoan it…
This Sikhanyiso Ndlovu is either a moron or psychiatric patient, hence the obvious susceptible to monumental self-contradiction.
Today he acknowledges unparalleled greed & kleptocracy within ZANU PF in general. Tomorrow he denies it and claims ZANU PF is the only thing in town – attributes all the rot to some ‘imaginary sanctions’. So, who is this silly guy really?
Shame!
