HARARE, Zimbabwe, March 17 (UPI) -- After underwriting a lavish wedding for his daughter, President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe told public service workers he wants a pay raise.
His government in the bankrupt country has not yet delivered on an election pledge to double the wages of 200,000 public servants, and economists warn the government will likely not be able to pay them on time this year, if at all, the British newspaper the Daily Telegraph reported Monday.
