The government of Zimbabwe has dismissed reports circulating on social media claiming contaminated meat is on the market, The Chronicle reports.
This was communicated by the Agriculture Minister Perence Shiri after yesterday’s post-cabinet briefing. Shiri said this to journalists:
But let me also talk about what has been coming out on social media whereby someone was broadcasting that some infected cattle were being slaughtered in Mhondoro and sold to butcheries in towns.
We have two to three extension workers in every ward and no report has been received to that effect, especially from Mhondoro, and that now casts doubt on the authenticity and reliability of the report.
Shiri also said they were intensifying their inspections all over the country to ensure that clean safe meat is on the market.

For your own safety give it a benefit of a doubt to what was circulating on media.Zanu of will never tell you the truth,they don’t care about you (Zim people). As long their families are safe, health, getting rich daily and looting that’s fine with them.
how does he refute the reports when before they had closed some butcheries for selling meat injected with mortuary chemicals.
