News:Portfolio Committee on Finance says Public Wants Bond Notes Soon. Public Reacts Against Assertion
<vote /> The Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation posted a story on it's Facebook page saying that the Portfolio Committee on Finance and Economic Development will engage Reserve Bank Governor John Mangudya on submissions made by members of the public concerning bond notes. The report goes on to mention that the chairperson of the portfolio committee David Chapfika said the public had raised concern that the 6 months period given for the introduction of bond notes is rather too long.
People on Facebook expressed their views concerning bond notes and questioned the authenticity of the public consultation with one user saying
" Which public consultation was done....when and where. Even in Uzumba maramba kufunga they raised a No voice to bond papers so STOP lying"
Another user commented
"Are you people serious right now....who are those people who were consulted who said its taking too long....those people who matter are saying we don't even want the bond note altogether...who have u been talking to?"
Another user also commented
"Excuse me Mr Chapfika which public is complaining that bond notes are taking too long. I believe when you say the public I am included and I am not complaining. Instead if you could just shelf the idea for now I will be happy."
These statements by the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee come as a surprise considering that the financial services sector rejected the bond notes. Ordinary citizens such as members of This Flag Movement have also consulted RBZ governor and expressed their dislike of the bond notes. The bond notes are scheduled for an October release.
