Cash-strapped Zimbabwe to spend $1bn on univ honouring Prez
Zimbabwe's cash-strapped government plans to build a $1-billion university named after its 93-year-old President Robert Mugabe, who has been accused of repression and bringing the country to economic ruin. Notably, Zimbabwe struggles to pay its workers and spends more than 90% of the national budget on government salaries, leaving very little for roads, hospitals and education.
