THE saga between the Zimbabwe Passengers Company (Zupco) and the Vehicles Inspectorate Department (VID), is raging on affecting commuters who find themselves without transport after the latter impounded some of the public transporter’s buses last week, NewsDay has gathered.
This comes amid reports that a Zupco bus ferrying war veterans was recently impounded by VID officers in Gwanda, Matabeleland South.
The impounded bus had insignia advertising the Southern African Development Community (Sadc) Heads of State Summit to be held next month.
“The impounded bus had adverts of the forthcoming Sadc summit due to be hosted by the government next month. The passengers were forced to seek other transport after the bus was impounded,’’ added our sources.
The loss-making public transporter has come under scrutiny amid allegations of corruption, financial mismanagement, among other ills that has seen workers going for several months without pay.
