The independent Zimbabwean radio station, Voice of the People, reported last week that Army commander, Lt Gen Phillip Sibanda, was heckled by soldiers from the Presidential Guard, unhappy over wages. The soldiers had been expecting a top-up to their wages to allow them to pay school fees. Sibanda went to the Harare barracks to tell the soldiers not only that there was no top-up, but also that their regular wages would be late.
