Minister of Finance commissions new flats for ZIMRA staff accommodation

The Minister of Finance, Economic Development and Investment Promotion, Professor Mthuli Ncube, officially commissioned newly built flats for ZIMRA employees at Beitbridge Border Post — a major milestone in line with Zimbabwe’s Vision 2030.

Held on the eve of International Customs Day (26 January), the event was attended by ZIMRA Board Chairman Mr. Anthony Mandiwanza, Commissioner General Ms. Regina Chinamasa, and other senior officials.

Mr. Mandiwanza outlined the journey of the project, thanking the government for its continued support in improving employee welfare. Minister Ncube emphasized its broader national significance:

“The event is timely as it is one of the many projects that have been completed within the lifespan of the country’s radical blueprint, the National Development Strategy 1,” he said.

He further stressed the importance of sustainable, modern housing and energy efficiency:

“We must preserve energy by adopting alternative sources such as solar and LPG. This reduces our energy bill and eases pressure on the national grid,” the Minister added, urging similar commitment to ongoing projects at Forbes, Chirundu, and Maitengwe.

ZIMRA Board member Mr. Johnsai Dewah encouraged staff to take pride in their new homes:

“These structures represent not only a significant investment by government but also a testament to our commitment to employees and national development. It is our duty to ensure that these flats are well-maintained.”

Among the staff, Mr. Tafadzwa Magudu, an administrator at the border, shared his joy:

“The provision of accommodation is a much-needed point of relief.”
