CLAIM: A local online media platform shared a Facebook post claiming the Zimbabwe National Road Administration (ZINARA) had increased its US Dollar vehicle licensing fees by 100 percent.
Is this true or false?
Verdict: True
The local road authority, ZINARA posted a notice on its social media platforms announcing an adjustment to vehicle licensing fees in terms of Statutory Instrument 67 of 2024 advising that the fees would apply with effect from the 13th of April 2024.
