Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa on Friday appointed former banker Mthuli Ncube as finance minister and said Winston Chitando would remain as mines minister.
Ncube is also Chairman of the Board of the African Economic Research Consortium, chairman of the Global Agenda Council on “Poverty and Economic Development” (World Economic Forum) and a governor of the African Capacity Building Foundation. His experience will serve him well in his newly appointed role.
The two technocrats are expected to lead plans for the country’s economic recovery.
Today, as promised, I appointed a diverse, dynamic, youthful and streamlined cabinet with the skills and experience required to achieve our goals.
Now it is time to get to work!
