Hiring Trump Lobbyist Waste Of Money- Former US Ambassador To Zim

Former United States Ambassador to Zimbabwe Bruce Wharton has said President Mnangagwa’s administration is wasting money by hiring Donald Trump’s fundraiser Brian Ballard.

Zimbabwe’s Foreign Minister Sibusiso Moyo signed a contract with Ballard Partners to represent Zimbabwe in Washington, making it the first firm to lobby on the country’s behalf in more than a decade The contract entails $150,000 quarterly installments through February 2020. Speaking on Twitter, Wharton said there will be no change in United States policy towards Zimbabwe. Said Wharton:

Tragic waste of public funds. The return of investment here is likely a negative–no change in U.S. policy (presumably what they hope to buy) and a further decline in the Government of Zimbabwe/ZANU-PF’s credibility on real reform.
