Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The government has admitted that there is rampant corruption, smuggling of minerals, and money laundering in the country.<\/p>\n

The Permanent Secretary of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services, Ndavaningi Mangwana, said the government is committed to dealing with the vices.<\/p>\n

He was responding to reports that Al Jazeera is set to expose corrupt Zimbabwean politicians and their associates in a documentary set to be aired this March. Tweeted Mangwana:<\/p>\n

Facts:-Is there corruption in Zimbabwe? Yes. -Is there smuggling of minerals and forex out of the country? Yes -Is there money laundering in Zimbabwe? Yes (including by NGOs) -Is the Government fully committed to getting rid of all the above ills? That\u2019s a fact.<\/p>\n

According to Zimbabwean award-winning journalist and filmmaker Hopewell Chin\u2019ono, filming of the Al Jazeera documentary started two years ago and chronicles plundering and money laundering in the country.<\/p>\n

Chin\u2019ono said the film producers have shown the films to a select group of corruption experts and journalists to give their comments before the documentary is broadcasted.<\/p>\n

A snippet of the documentary featuring ZANU PF affiliate and President Emmerson Mnangagwa\u2019s appointed ambassador at large, Uebert Angel has gone viral on social media.<\/p>\n

According to NewZimbabwe.com, Angel, a preacher of the prosperity gospel, was dragged to court to answer charges of fraud involving a luxury vehicle worth US$300 000 in 2015.<\/p>\n
