MPs to be named, shamed

have not accounted for the money they got from the Constituency Development Fund.

MPs had raised concerns about media reports concerning CDF, which they said appeared as if not all legislators had accou-nted for the money. Bubi constituency legislator, Cde Clifford Sibanda (Zanu-PF), asked Minister Matinenga to name the MPs who had not accounted for the funds so that those who had done so could be cleared of any wrongdoing.

“I can assure you that when I left the office today 133 MPs had been recorded as having filed their returns and if the honourable member so wishes, I am quite happy to bring a list and to bring that list before this House. I know that there are certain reports in certain publications, which meddle in the issue but I can assure members that I have never given an impression that everybody has not accounted,” he said.
