Minister Edgar Moyo Urges New NSSA Board to Restore Trust and Accountability

Zimbabwe's labor minister announced a new board for the National Social Security Authority. Edgar Moyo told the board members to fix problems that hurt public trust. The authority manages pensions and accident coverage for workers. Poor decisions and corruption damaged the organization's reputation. Moyo wants the new leaders to make better investment choices.

The authority collects money from employers and workers to pay benefits. Retired people deserve fair payments after years of work. Smart investments help the fund grow stronger over time. Past boards made bad deals that lost money. The new team must avoid these mistakes.

Christopher Dube will lead the nine-member board. Other members represent government offices, labor groups and businesses. The group takes control during a difficult period for the authority. Public anger grew after financial scandals hurt pensioner payments. Workers complained about poor service and delayed benefits.

The minister promised training sessions about proper governance rules. Board meetings and member pay follow strict government guidelines. A new safety law will expand the authority's duties. Legal problems from previous years need quick solutions.

The authority faced years of criticism about money management. People questioned whether their retirement funds were safe. Some investments failed and cost the organization millions. The new board must rebuild trust with workers and retirees. Better oversight should prevent future scandals.
