SMEs starve as officials feasted


By Daniel Chigundu
SMEs Minister Sithembiso Nyoni
SMALL to Medium Enterprises and Cooperative Development Minister Sithembiso Nyoni and officials from her ministry feasted on five-star food while SMEs were left to starve at Rainbow Towers yesterday.
Small business-people drawn from around Harare and surrounding areas had been bused by Minister Nyoni in a typical rent-a-crowd scenario to grace the official launch of the FinScope MSME Survey Zimbabwe 2012.
But all hell broke loose when President Mugabe who was the guest of honour and other guests were whiskered away to the VIP Lounge for lunch which was mysteriously served at around 15:45pm.
Ministry officials shared the meal tickets amongst themselves while the 100 plus SMEs and a few journalists were advised to walk to Taste of Africa near Mupedzanhamo open market for their lunch.
