Shape up or ship out, ED warns bureaucrats
Bureaucrats causing unnecessary delays in implementing Government programmes should either reform or face the chop, President Emmerson Mnangagwa has said.
Officially closing the 18th Zanu-PF National People's Conference here yesterday, the President said there is no room for laziness in both the party and Government.
"All party members and the nation as a whole must shun retrogressive tendencies such as laziness, indiscipline, greed, corruption, selflessness and immorality, among other vices," he said.
"I further challenge every public servant and party member to reform, reinvigorate and turn over a new leaf towards a result-oriented culture. Excuses for non-performance will no longer be tolerated."
Persons charged with the responsibility of implementing Government programmes must deliver, he said.
"Those who refuse to change and have been busy slowing down Government programmes will be changed."
President Mnangagwa said the country's success depended on proper organisation, including timely allocation and use of resources earmarked for projects.
"Let us shift the population towards a mindset of productivity; we will support projects across every sector of the economy.
