The government will soon rectify the anomaly that saw President Mnangagwa appointing six non-constituency parliamentarians as ministers instead of the constitutionally stipulated five.
This was said by Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ziyambi Ziyambi in the National Assembly while responding to concerns raised by Mutare Central legislator Mr Innocent Gonese that the President had breached the Constitution by appointing more than five non-constituency MPs as ministers.
In his response Minister Ziyambi acknowledged Mr Gonese’s concerns.
Said Ziyambi:
I want to thank honourable Gonese for his concerns which are well acknowledged. The current administration is committed to constitutionalism and in no way will it wilfully violate the Constitution. His concerns have been noted and will be rectified.
