He said:<\/p>\n<p>We regret there are people who invaded my inbox with comments against Nyaradzo Group with unfounded malicious allegations of business malpractices that are not factual.<\/p>\n<p>I have gone through the tweets and l realised that the comments I made were factually incorrect and defaming.<\/p>\n<p>I did not intend to tarnish or damage the CEO\u2019s good name, or the good name of Nyaradzo Group company.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to sincerely apologise for my actions and the tweets have since been removed from my Twitter handle.<\/p>\n<p>Among the accusations made against Nyaradzo, were claims that the company\u2019s funeral policies did not mature while policyholders were also not getting any cashback as per policy terms.<\/p>\n<p>This ignited debate on social media platforms and the Insurance and Pensions Commission (IPEC) eventually got involved and pledged to engage funeral assurers over the issues that were raised.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, Chibanda also issued an apology to National Social Security Authority (NSSA) general manager Arthur Manase after accusing him of corruption.<\/p>\n<p>Early this month, one Farai Paruwani apologised to Nyaradzo after he had claimed that the company had rejected a claim on his policy following the death of his son.<\/p>\n<p>He alleged that he was paying US$19.80 per month for 15 years but only defaulted 3 months within which his son died. He said Nyaradzo refused to bury his son.<\/p>\n<p>Nyaradzo then got in touch with Paruwani requesting that he furnishes them with evidence supporting his claims.<\/p>\n<p>Paruwani apologised to the company, saying said he had made an error.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
