We have struggled to deal with corruption in Zimbabwe for quite some time now and it is in the best interest of everyone for the government to quickly audit all donations contributed towards Covid-19 as soon as the pandemic is over.

Since January this year at least 103 statutory instruments have been issued in relation Covid-19 and as a trained lawyer I am still battling to understand a plethora of these unclear instruments.
