There is no reason to have such high taxes on Zimbabwe, the highest in the region,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>President Chamisa promised that a Citizens-led government would take decisive steps to ease the burden on ordinary Zimbabweans by eliminating excessive taxation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will remove all those \u2018dodgy\u2019 taxes in order to cushion citizens. Only an accountable and credible Citizens Government can deliver this!\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The remarks come at a time when many Zimbabweans are grappling with high living costs, with fuel prices continuing to have a ripple effect across the economy.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<span id=\"wordads-inline-marker\" style=\"display: none;\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><!-- #comments --><\/p><\/div>\n<p>\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Remove #Dodgy #Taxes #Save #Suffering #People #Zimbabwe #ZimEye<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Chamisa: We Will Remove Dodgy Taxes To Save Suffering People Of Zimbabwe Tinashe Sambiri\u2013 Citizens leader Advocate Nelson Chamisa&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":50832,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32,11],"tags":[8556,6694,202,1283,7031,1667,7841,3858,113],"class_list":["post-53520","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mzansi","category-world","tag-dodgy","tag-eduzim","tag-news","tag-people","tag-remove","tag-save","tag-suffering","tag-taxes","tag-zimbabwe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=53520"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53520\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":53521,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53520\/revisions\/53521"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50832"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=53520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=53520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=53520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
