The Zimbabwe National Road Administration (ZINARA) has borrowed $600 million from Nedbank for the Emergency Road Rehabilitation Programme 2 (ERRP2).
The Government gave a guarantee that the money will be repaid by the end of May.
<a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/zinara-borrows-600m-for-errp/">The Herald</a> reported that ZINARA has a substantial daily inflow of revenue from its toll gates and vehicle licence fees, but occasionally borrows to speed up progress or to finance a major set of roadworks.
The notice of the guarantee was gazetted by Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube as 131H of 2023. Said Ncube:
<blockquote>
The guarantee is surety to Nedbank Zimbabwe Limited that Government will honour ZINARA’s obligations under the composite bridging facility for road rehabilitation works for the Emergency Road Rehabilitation Programme Phase 2 project in the event that ZINARA defaults on its contractual obligations.
The total amount covered by the guarantee is for $600 million including accrued interest.
The guarantee shall be applicable and become payable in so far as the funds were used by Zinara for the sole and authorised purpose of constructing the road rehabilitation works under the Emergency Road Rehabilitation Programme Phase 2 project.

ZINARA Borrows $600 Million For Roads Rehabilitation

A Citizen Coalition for Change (CCC) Member of Parliament has distanced himself from the controversial US$40 000 loans offered to lawmakers by the government.
Addressing residents at a recently held community engagement meeting at Moffat Hall in Sakubva, Innocent Gonese, who represents Mutare Central in the National Assembly, said he doesn’t know anything about the loans. Said Gonese:
<blockquote>
The issue of government loans has been topical of late. The truth of the matter is that I haven’t seen any money and I don’t know about anything concerning the US$40 000 housing loan.
As you all know, I am a steadfast CCC member and as a party, we will sit down and discuss on the issue because I don’t want to be caught offside.
After coming up with a conclusion, we will come up with a statement that will be delivered to the public.
</blockquote>
Recent media reports indicate that MPs were offered US$40 000 housing loans with Ministers being offered US$500 000 and their deputies getting US$350 000.
CCC leader Nelson Chamisa said that the loans were a bribe and warned his MPs not to “drink from the poisoned chalice” as they will face the wrath of voters.
However, CCC Chief Whip in Parliament Prosper Mutseyami said the loan was not a donation but “a genuine part of the MPs’ welfare.” | <a href="https://tellzim.com/mp-gonese-distances-self-from-us-40k-govt-loan/">TellZim News</a>

CCC MP Distances Self From US$40 000 Housing Loan For Lawmakers

The Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) says its MPs are free to take the US$40 000 housing loans from parliament, but they must repay them.
CCC leader Nelson Chamisa previously declared that the loans were a bribe and warned his MPs not to “drink from the poisoned chalice” as they will face the wrath of voters.
On Wednesday, deputy CCC spokesman Gift Ostallos Siziba announced the compromise deal after appearing at a news conference with some of the MPs led by CCC Chief Whip in Parliament Prosper Mutseyami. Said Siziba:
<blockquote>
There had been a misunderstanding over the loans, but the MPs have clarified that it was in fact they who led the push for housing loans and secured the concession in the supplementary budget in September. There can be no question of them not repaying the loans.
</blockquote>
Mutseyami told journalists that the loans “cannot bribe or derail our cause,” appearing to directly contradict Chamisa. Said Mutseyami:
<blockquote>
The suggestion in some quarters that loans are donations is not correct. In the midterm supplementary budget of September 2022, a provision was made for a housing or vehicle loan of US$40 000. This loan was understood as a genuine part of the MPs’ welfare.
The loan is therefore not a surprise executive instrument but one that went through the due process of appropriation as is provided in the constitution.
It is not a discretionary issue or an executive gratuitous gesture like the grants given to ministers and deputy ministers.
</blockquote>
President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s spokesman George Charamba on Wednesday said that the disbursement of the loans was being done by alphabetic order.
He claimed CCC deputy leader Tendai Biti was the first to get the disbursement as his surname places him top. He said:
<blockquote>
Did you know that by today, 100 MPs had been paid? Or was that payment by alphabetic order?
Meaning the first to be paid was Biti Tendai. With Chikwinya Settlement (Mbizo MP) among the top 10 to be settled! Which explains why Biti was funerally quiet.

Defiant CCC MPs Force Chamisa Into Loans Compromise

The opposition CCC Parliamentary Caucus has denied claims that the US$40 000 loans granted to Members of Parliament by Treasury are donations.
CCC MPs have received a lot of criticism especially on social media platforms for taking the loans.
Critics accuse the opposition MPs of joining the “gravy train” saying they are no longer serving the interets of the electorate, but their selfish interests.
Even CCC president Nelson Chamisa has criticised his MPs for accepting the loans and warned them that they will be punished by voters.
But CCC Chief Whip in Parliament Prosper Mutseyami defended the party’s MPs, saying the loans are a “genuine part of the MPs’ welfare.” He said:
<blockquote>
The suggestion in some quarters that loans are donations is not correct. In the midterm supplementary budget of September 2022 approved, provision was made for a housing or vehicle loan of US$40 000.
This loan was understood as a genuine part of the MPs’ welfare. The loan is therefore not a surprise executive instrument but one that went through the due process of appropriation as is provided in the constitution.
It is not a discretionary issue or an executive gratuitous gesture like the grants granted to ministers and deputy ministers.
In October of 2022, MPs were made to sign binding loan application forms which they executed.
In late November, parliament made partial disbursements of these loans. The loan in question is above board.
</blockquote>
Mutseyami, who is the MP for Dangamvura, said it was unfair to compare CCC legislators with those of ZANU PF simply because they accepted the loans. He said:
<blockquote>
The loan in question is no excuse for state failure or the deplorable state of public services.
It is no excuse for 42 years of mismanagement and misallocation of public resources. And most certainly the loan cannot bribe or derail our cause.
We therefore reject the equalisation. We are not Zanu, have never been Zanu. We have remained principled and committed.
We have remained unwavering in our quest for transformation and change in our country We have faced dictatorship and its billions of dollars weaponised against our people.
</blockquote>
Mutseyami also claimed that MPs are currently earning ZWL$$200 000 “which is equivalent to US$200.” He added:
<blockquote>
The new salary remains way below the poverty datum line by a long margin.
It also remains way below the average regional salary of MPs which is US$2 000 even in economies smaller than Zimbabwe or countries such as Kenya and others where MPs are paid around US$13,000 a month.
This is in addition to the provision of constituency offices, and paid research assistance.

CCC MPs Say US$40 000 Loans Are Not A Donation

The Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly Tsitsi Gezi on Tuesday castigated Members of Parliament across the political divide for “behaving like drunkards”.
This was after she struggled to bring the House to order for about 15 minutes during a heated argument between ZANU PF and MDC MPs on one side and CCC MPs on the other side.
The chaos was triggered by Norton MP Temba Mliswa (Independent), who had accused CCC leader Nelson Chamisa of “hypocrisy” over the US$40 000 loans given to MPs and this angered CCC MPs.
Cabinet ministers were each offered US$500 000, deputy ministers US$350 000 and MPs US$40 000 as loans by the government.
Chamisa then criticised his own MPs for accepting the US$40 000 loans and also condemned the government for its seeming misplaced priorities.
Mliswa raised a matter of national interest on the welfare of legislators, saying MPs in Zimbabwe were the least paid in the region, and then went on to attack Chamisa. He said:
<blockquote>
I would also want leaders of other political parties, especially Advocate Chamisa, to really understand — him being a lawyer — that MPs have a contract with Parliament; not with the party when they are here. I don’t know why he gets involved.
He must not whip them (MPs) on contractual issues. He was once an MP. I expected him to stand for other MPs because he knows how we have suffered.
We don’t want such hypocrisy from any leader. Let him deal with putting out his structures at CCC while here in Parliament, we get our money.
</blockquote>
ZANU PF and MDC Alliance legislators cheered Mliswa, but CCC MPs were displeased.
Mbizo MP Settlement Chikwinya then raised a point of order and accused Mliswa of denigrating Chamisa. Said Chikwinya:
<blockquote>
He cannot respond for himself as he (Chamisa) does not sit in this Parliament.
</blockquote>
Some MPs jumped over seats to get to Chikwinya and threaten him, and the commotion lasted for about 15 minutes. | <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200004667/chaos-in-parly-over-chamisa">NewsDay</a>

National Assembly Deputy Speaker Chides MPs For "Behaving Like Drunkards"

The leader of the opposition Labour Economists African Democrats (LEAD) party, Linda Masarira, has warned that the US$40 000 loans provided to legislators by the government will create voter apathy in the 2023 general elections.
The government extended a US$40 000 loan facility to all Members of Parliament (MPs) across the political divide and US$500 000 and US$350 000 for ministers and their deputies respectively.
The loan facility has been condemned by citizens considering that it comes when the MPs are nearing the end of their terms and the country’s health sector is in a sorry state.
Commenting on the loan facility in a Facebook post, Masarira said it will result in a low voter turnout in the 2023 election. She said:
<blockquote>
These loans are going to increase voter apathy in 2023.
Since elections are about 7 to 8 months away, how are the legislators going to pay back the loans if they are not re-elected into office?
I sense a grant packaged as a loan and we can’t keep silent as taxpayers’ funds are once again been looted.
The next we will hear is that the loans have been written off.
</blockquote>
According to a recent Afrobarometer survey, the electorate was dissatisfied with how its interests were being represented by MPs.
Parliamentarians are expected to represent those who elected them into office, but they seem to put a lot of pressure on the Treasury only when they want their needs to be met and their welfare to be catered for. | <a href="https://openparly.com/us40000-loan-facility-heres-why-masarira-has-rang-alarm-bells/">Open Parly</a>

US$40 000 Loan Facility Will Create Voter Apathy - Masarira

The opposition Front for Economic Emancipation in Zimbabwe (FEEZ) party led by Godfrey Tsenengamu has condemned the move by President Emmerson Mnangagwa to give out loans to Cabinet Ministers, their Deputies, and Members of Parliament (MPs) a few months before general elections.
The government has offered a US$40 000 housing loan to each sitting MP, US$500 000 for individual ministers, and US$350 000 for their deputies.
In a statement, FEEZ argued that the loans are not meant for the purchase of residential homes but meant to provide ZANU-PF MPs with resources to campaign for general elections scheduled for 2023 so that the party retains a two-thirds parliamentary majority. Reads the statement:
<blockquote>
The Front for Economic Emancipation in Zimbabwe (FEEZ) castigates and condemns in the strongest terms the lack of compassion by the ED-led ZANU-PF regime to the suffering masses of Zimbabwe as shown by its move to fork out millions of scarce foreign currency to Ministers, Deputy Ministers and Members of Parliament in the guise of providing residential stands loans.
The FEEZ party does not take lightly this insensitive move by the ZANU-PF government which is being done at the expense of the poor taxpayers including civil servants whose salaries are way below the poverty datum line and the poor masses who can’t access basic social services like health as they are living on less than $1 a day. 
As FEEZ, we know that these monies being parcelled out are not meant for the purchase of residential homes but meant to provide ZANU-PF MPs4ED with ready resources to use in their 2023 campaigns in order for ZANU-PF to maintain its two-thirds majority in Parliament. 
This is so because there is no way a government can provide repayable loans to people who have less than a year in office when vehicle loans of the same magnitude are spread over a five-year period. 
There is no way these loans are going to be repaid because they are never meant to be repaid.
While some might have wanted us to capitalize on this opportunity to score cheap political points over our colleagues in the opposition, we have chosen to be realistic and objective.
From a principle and moral point of view, we may have wanted to challenge all opposition Members of Parliament especially those from CCC to stop and reflect before taking up these loans as this is not only going to reflect badly on them but also leave them compromised and tainted such that they won’t be able to hold the government to account and will largely be seen as being selfish. 
However, on another thought, we noted that it will be unwise to encourage them to do so given that their ZANU-PF and MDC colleagues will still take the money and fund their 2023 campaigns. 
It is tricky for the CCC legislators to do so also given the fact that both ZANU-PF and MDC parties have always had a share of Political Parties Finance given by the government and the CCC has been struggling to get funding and only relying on handouts from well-wishers. 
Besides these monies, that the ED-led ZANU-PF government is giving out to its MPs4ED under the guise of housing loans when in reality these are campaign funds, the opposition will have to face a well-oiled ZANUPF campaign machinery being bankrolled to the tune of USD150 million. 
In a normal set up we would have asked our colleagues in the opposition to turn down the loans but doing so will leave them financially crippled ahead of a crucial election.
We urge Zimbabweans to be able to read between the lines. Here we are dealing with a cunning government that has for the first time in history given out a budget to fund activities of the ZANU-PF Secretary for Environment and Tourism (Mai Auxillia Mnangagwa) under the guise of supporting the First Lady’s cultural and tourism programmes. That is ZANU-PF for you.
We, therefore, urge our comrades in the CCC to look at this matter objectively and find a better way to handle the issue before it causes disharmony in their movement ahead of 2023.
More importantly, we feel that it may also be unfair if we also don’t point out and condemn the bad habits of the electorate that we believe contribute to what we are condemning today. 
We make an issue out of the common but bad practice by the electorate of demanding to be bribed and bought out through soliciting for goodies and handouts from those they seek to vote into office to serve and represent them as this practice leads to incidences where those elected after having pumped out their hard-earned resources to win an election would naturally then seek to recover costs incurred during campaigns when they get in office. 
For as long as our people continue to commodify their vote and demand to be bribed to vote for a leader, it will be difficult to demand selfless and servant leadership from those who would have bought their way into public office. 
This practice breeds corruption and must be discouraged and stopped going forward.
The FEEZ Party as led by Chief Commandant Godfrey Tsenengamu, being a partner in the 3rd Way Movement pledges a principled, selfless, compassionate, people-centered, servant, and God-fearing leadership if elected into office.

FEEZ Speaks On USD Loans For Ministers, Deputies, MPs | Full Statement

Social media users, including supporters of the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), have condemned the opposition party’s legislators for accepting loans from the government less than 12 months before the end of their terms.
The government has offered a US$40 000 housing loan to each sitting Member of Parliament (MP), US$500 000 for individual ministers and US$350 000 for their deputies.
The loans have seemingly angered CCC supporters who feel that the MPs should reject them to prove that they are not in Parliament for personal gain.
University of Zimbabwe (UZ) Political Science lecturer, Eldred Masunungure, told <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200004372/ccc-mps-defy-chamisa-on-us40k-loot">NewsDay</a> that CCC MPs had fallen into the ZANU PF trap to expose the opposition party’s “lack of organisational cohesion”. He said:
<blockquote>
In this case of loans, the party is being judged against its moral standards. It is against their party position on pursuing selfless interests, but the MPs are rather benefiting from political patronage.
In this case, no party position has been abided by. The logical thing to do in this case was for them to sit down and discuss the matter and agree on one position.
What it means is that the leader is very consistent, but he has failed to whip his subordinates to one collective stance.
</blockquote>
Another political analyst, Vivid Gwede, said the public expects opposition MPs to act differently from ZANU PF legislators. Said Gwede:
<blockquote>
Members of Parliament from the opposition will always be held to a higher standard than those from ZANU PF because the expectation is that they should represent and bring a new culture.
That expected culture is about service over self. Hence, when they appear to be already enjoying themselves while the rest of the populace is suffering, there is a feeling of betrayal.
But that does mean that people should get acclimatised to the selfishness of ZANU PF MPs.
At this moment, MPs should be fighting for the resuscitation of basic public services such as health and education.
</blockquote>
Team Pachedu, a group of activists, critical of the government and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC), said that Harare North MP Allan Norman “Rusty” Markham is the only legislator to reject the loan. It also said:
<blockquote>
US$500,000 grants for ministers is madness. US$350,000 grants for deputies is madness. MPs will not complain about this wasteful spending because they have been silenced with US$40,000. Zimbabweans, we are on our own!
Very unstrategic for CCC MPs to take the $40,000. With only 6 months before the next election how do they attack the other side of failing when they too received the loot? When the alternative acts like the current it ceases being one.
</blockquote>

"CCC Being Judged Against Its Moral Standards"

CCC leader Nelson Chamisa has castigated President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government for its alleged misplaced priorities.
Posting on Twitter on Wednesday, Chamisa said it is “morally and ethically wrong” for the government to give out loans to “chefs” when the majority of the country’s citizens are suffering.
This comes after the government has offered a US$40 000 housing loan to each sitting Member of Parliament (MP), US$500 000 for individual ministers, and US$350 000 for their deputies. Said Chamisa:
<blockquote>
In any public office, any decision that prioritises self over the served is morally wrong, especially in a context where poverty pervades with citizens so hard-pressed and in circumstances of lack! Wrong leaders usually have wrong priorities.
The role of a government is to address citizens’ most urgent and pertinent needs. When this is abandoned, such a government merits replacement.
Any government that prioritises ‘chefs’ over citizens is not fit for the purpose. #CitizensFirst.
No public funds can ever be received or transacted silently. Accountability must always be full!
</blockquote>
Arguably, the majority of CCC supporters who have expressed their thoughts on social media have criticised the party’s MPs for accepting the loans, saying they are selfish.
Last month, Chamisa claimed that the ZANU PF-led government was bribing CCC officials to destabilise the opposition party ahead of the 2023 elections. He said:
<blockquote>
Anything that is valuable is bound to be betrayed or sold out. Economic circumstances are not for the lily-livered and the weak-kneed. Some are very sensitive to poverty and this economic environment has been very harsh.
Some would go for farms, nice cars, cattle, (and) coupons, while others will betray their birthright for a mere bowl of soup.
What is the birthright? Freedom, democracy, success and prosperity, the transformation of our country, good governance, citizen dignity — they will surrender those for their personal benefits.
But we learn from the best. (The late MDC leader) Morgan Tsvangirai never betrayed Zimbabwe.
</blockquote>
However, CCC has not publicly stated its position on the issue of the loans, and reports suggest that only Harare North MP, Allan Norman “Rusty” Markham, has rejected the loan. | <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200004372/ccc-mps-defy-chamisa-on-us40k-loot">NewsDay</a>

Chamisa Criticises Govt For Offering USD Loans To Ministers, Deputies & MPs

Controversial preacher Passion Java and Zimbabwe Youth Presidential Support Organisation president, Tempter Paul Tungwarara, have pledged to offer loans to youths who come up with viable business plans.
The duo made the promise on Monday at a private club where Java donated belated Christmas gifts to the elderly, orphans and the vulnerable.
They said the loans will range from US$500 to US$3 000 and beneficiaries will be expected to repay the loans within six months.
Chitungwiza, Java’s home town, is set to be the first to benefit, next year, before the programme cascades to the rest of the country. Said Tungwarara:
<blockquote>
The program will target all the youths, vendors, miners and all professionals and experts engaged in commodity selling in all parts of Zimbabwe.
</blockquote>
Java said though he is a prophet, he believes in the vision of President Emmerson Mnangagwa of youth empowerment. Said Java:
<blockquote>
I am not a politician but I believe in the vision of President Mnangagwa of supporting and empowering youths and so as a socialite and influential prophet, I will support him with my resources.
</blockquote>
Youths who want the loans can get in touch with Java and Tungwarara via their Instagram page or WhatsApp them on the number appearing on their Instagram page, passion java records.
