I am not on the list for those debating #CAB3 this week. The CCC Chief Whip removed me from the group where notices to debate are sent. However whatโ€™s important is the voting and i unequivocally reject the Bill in its entirety and will vote against it accordingly. #NoToCab3

First as Chairperson of the Public Accounts Committee, I want to wholeheartedly thank Mai Kujinga who has been acting Auditor General of Zimbabwe for the past 3 years since the departure of Mildred Chiri. Mai Kujinga has done well to produce high quality reports which have been useful for us in executing our role; I wish her all the best. I want to also welcome Ms Chikwenhere in her new role as the Auditor General, she has the qualifications and I personally examined her interview results and previous experience before her confirmation by Parliament. I am confident she will carry out her new role with absolute due diligence.

โ€œZimbabwe will not have a fuel crisis over the next six months. Our reserves are full, with over 540 million litres of fuel underground,โ€ says Hon @cmatewu during a tour of the NOIC Mabvuku depot. He added that Parliament will support legislation to boost fuel pumping capacity and impose stiffer penalties on pipeline vandalism.

My honest assessment on the situation at ZISCO steel
โ€œZiscosteel is deadโ€ฆโ€ MP @cmatewu, chair of Parliamentโ€™s Public Accounts Committee, says it would be unwise for the Mutapa Fund to put money into the old steel plant. Mutapaโ€™s target, all along, has been Ziscoโ€™s rich mineral resources ๐Ÿ”— newzwire.live/the-big-steel-โ€ฆ

I have nothing to do with this program and never agreed to it. I am the Chairperson of the Public Accounts Committee and I hold the government accountable from that angle and nothing else. This does not have my consent
