Professor Mthuli Ncube, Finance and Economic Development Minister has called on citizens to trust the new dispensation since it acts upon its word.
Responding to a question by Norton MP Temba Mliswa, who had alleged that citizens can no longer trust Government due to policy changes, Ncube said:
I thank the honourable member for that spirited question. First of all, he must trust us, the nation must trust us; the reason being that we walk the talk on everything we say.
We said we would stabilise Government finances, we will institute fiscal discipline (and) we have done that.
We also said we were going to reform the monetary system; we have done that. We have also said we continue to fine-tune the monetary set-up; we are doing that.
Some analysts have been claiming that investor flight from Zimbabwe into neighboring countries is partly influenced by policy inconsistency. Some say that the government is yet to fulfill pre-election manifesto promises including affordable health, “jobs, jobs, jobs” and a stable economy.
