Ncube's MDC blames Zanu PF for Bulawayo accident

The MDC party led by former Industry minister Welshman Ncube, has blamed the ruling Zanu PF government for the unfortunate loss of lives, including last week’s horror crash that claimed 14 lives in Bulawayo.

In a statement, MDC spokesperson Kurauone Chihwayi said:

It is sad to note that it has to take nothing short of the loss of precious lives for government to begin to take notice of the serious disrepair of our roads. It is our hope that government will acknowledge and accept responsibility for these unnecessary deaths and swiftly make reparations to the families of the deceased. The cause of this accident like many others before it is the negligence and rampant corruption inside President Robert Mugabe’s government. The government and in particular the Transport ministry must be brought to book over the horrific deterioration of our roads.
