Business slams post-poll violence

ZIMBABWE’s business leaders have slammed violence that erupted in Harare’s central business district (CBD) on Wednesday, saying it was not good for business growth.

This came after the army shot and killed six people, injuring several others after protesters alleged electoral fraud by Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) in favour of ruling Zanu PF party.

Zimbabwe National Chamber of Commerce chief executive officer, Christopher Mugaga urged parties to desist from violence, adding that it had the capacity to trigger further economic deterioration.
