Land Barons take advantage of desperate home seekers

Langton Ncube | Hundreds of desperate home-seekers in Harare South have lost over  US$5000 to local Zanu PF land barons.
The victims, most of them Zanu PF supporters said this happened last week when unidentified Zanu PF officials congregated “us” near Stone-Ridge farm in Harare South, and  said they had been given land by the  party for us to build houses .
They said the officials then demanded US$10 from each member which they said was for administration purposes.
“They had a letter which had a Zanu-PF date stamp as well as the party logo and that alone convinced us that they were genuine and they said the fees were for processing of the required paper work ,” said one of the Zanu PF supporters who were duped.
“What then surprised us was that they came with a person who they said was a surveyor who was very quick to allocate us some stands during that night.
“The surveyor said that the area had been approved by the local council and he was had been hired by the party to assure us that indeed the area was suitable for building residential stands,” said another victim.
The victims said that they came to know that they had been duped after one of “us” made efforts to confirm with Zanu PF head offices where he was told that the party had not allocated any farm for residents to build their houses.
“ The problem we have now is how to recover our money because one of the officials who addressed us is saying that they took the money to  other chefs in the party who have links with the province and us being ordinary party members we can not go to the HQ alone,” he said.
Efforts by ZimEye  to get a comment from Zanu PF political commissar for Harare Province, Shadreck Mashayamombe, were fruitless as his mobile number could not be reached.
Last month Zanu PF mobilized party youths who gathered at the Zanu PF head quarters where they promised to give them some residential stands in Harare.
At the meeting, the party said that they had identified several farms in peri-urban Harare which they would allocate to their party supporters for the purposes of building houses.

  1. Why the surprise? Thats how Shonas do things. They are now full everywhere in Mthwakazi taking our jobs and sharing among each other; calling each other from distant places all because of their cultural disease of nepotism, chawawana……idya nehama…….mwanawekumusha. We are also sick and tired of them in Matebeleland!!

  2. One Shona thief stealing from another…I love it, they must continue doing so and I want to then see them burn the houses down!!!!

  3. I think those are just people desperately looking for a home for their families. The real problem is somewhere up the hierarchy: Bob, Grace, Chihuri (who doesn’t have the slightest idea on how a democracy works) and the sort. These little ones are just hangers-on. They are not aware of what it means to be a zanu-pf member. Like my old mother who seems not to be able to make the difference between Zimbabwean and Zanu pf. 😉 I have given up on trying to convince her … Kikkkkkkkkkkk

  4. Quite frankly I am not yet convinced that the Shonas are yet feeling Mugabe’s Gukurahundi venom. They havent squirmed yet. The Shona Mugabe must up the ante now. Whip the Shonas as if there is no tomorrow. Let them feel the pain; let them cry blood. let them tremble. Hit them hard please hit them hard!!

  5. For Christ’s sake how come land is being distributed in the name of ZANU PF and not the government? Looks like everything belongs to Zanu pf: war vets, women’s league, courts, police, army, land, demonstration right etc. Tsvangirai might not be the most intelligent guy in Zimbabwe but he is definitely an eye opener for many. Looks like you have to be a Zanu member to survive in zim.
