Close
to fifty NGOs attend Masvingo Governor’s meeting
Community Tolerance Reconciliation and Development (COTRAD)
March 01, 2013
Close to fifty
(50) NGOs attended the meeting called for by Governor Maluleke today
at 1000 hours at his Benjamin Burombo Offices in Masvingo. In attendance
was, Governor Maluleke, Assistant Provincial Policing Officer, Assistant
to the Provincial Central Intelligence Organization boss who did
not identify himself in the meeting and Chipika Assistant Provincial
Administrator.
Each organization
was tasked to present a situational overview of who is funding its
programs and the activities the organization is implementing, disclose
the Memorandum of Understanding status (to reveal whether the organization
is registered with the local responsible authorities like the District
administrators and Provincial Administrators).
The Governor
highlighted that it was going to be mandatory for NGOs to submit
their work plans to the District Policing office for Masvingo District
Nyapfuri. It was emphasized that by submitting work plans responsible
authorities could verify if organizations were not deviating from
their mandate.
Such meetings
were declared by the Governor that they were going to be monthly
meetings in which the Governors office will use to track the initiatives
of NGOs in Masvingo Province. The integrated approach as emphasized
by the resident minister was meant to inform all NGOs that they
are supposed to work with line ministries and security forces.
Election processes
again the Governor made it clear that they are to closely monitor
who is implementing such initiatives and with what intentions, funded
by who to undermine sovereignty. The meeting was a routine strategy
and ploy by the Governor to intimidate NGOs by threatening to nullify
MOUs of unidentified organizations they purported are undermining
sovereignty.
