Chinamasa tells Zimbabweans to reject bond notes at their own peril

Finance Minister Patrick Chinamasa yesterday claimed Zimbabweans will reject bond notes at their own risk as their families and businesses will be negatively affected by such a snub.

He said that while responding to Binga North MP Prince Dubeko Sibanda (MDC-T) in the National Assembly during the question-and-answer session, where he also added that Zimbabweans should have confidence in the surrogate currency. Chinamasa said,

We need confidence in whatever we are going to do because if you do not accept the bond notes, you do it at the peril of your families and businesses and it is important for the nation to give bond notes confidence because if you do not, business will collapse due to lack of US dollars in the market.
