Chiefs' allowances to be increased

Addressing the traditional leaders during the 2017 Annual National Chiefs’ Conference in Bulawayo yesterday, Local Government, Rural Development and National Housing Minister Saviour Kasukuwere said Finance Minister Ignatius Chombo will raise chiefs’ allowances.

Said Kasukuwere:

We heard the issues that are being raised by our traditional leaders. Together with fellow ministers here present we saw it fit that we move with haste to hold provincial assemblies with chiefs as a matter of urgency to hear some of the issues affecting our traditional leaders. So we have agreed with other ministers to have a blitz around the country, meeting our traditional leaders.
