The Harare City Council has rushed to demolish houses at Dunstan farm near the Harare International Airport ahead of the return of the Mugabe family this afternoon from their one month long traditional vacation in Dubai.
The First Family reportedly blew expenses to the tune of close to $500,000 during their stay in a presidential suite which money is more than would have easily been paid to rehouse the Dunstan farm residents.
In November Robert Mugabe ordered the demolition of the settlement which he described as an “eyesore” that tarnishes the image of the country.
Home to over 2000 families Dunstan farm belongs to former Zanu PF Mashonaland East provincial Chairman Ray Kaukonde who Mugabe sacked from his party last year on allegations of plotting to assassinate him.
Kaukonde was fired together with the former Vice President Joice Mujuru and several other senior Zanu PF members on similar allegations.
Harare city council attempted to raze down the settlement in December but was asked to stop by the area’s local Member of Parliament, Shadreck Mashayamombe, who was appealing for more time to arrange for alternative housing for the victims.
Harare city council is urging that the area was reserved for on Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe (CAAZ) property development.

That is how docile Zimbabweans have become so much that they just stand there and watch someone destroy their home. In any other country someone would have been shot for doing this. It’s not like they brought the army to destroy these houses people need to fight to the death than let another person sitting in an office take away their dignity and their sweat and blood. An example must be set either on the person who ordered the demolitions and or the ones who approved the construction of this settlement so that in future this thing won’t happen again.

Hardly a Chitungwiza cardboard shack. Shame. I thought Comrades wanted to empower the povo.
I have never commented on social media but felt the need to after watching this!!! Our beloved country has come to such… l pray for God’s intervention as our countryman have suffered for far too long! Why would the council allow illegal construction of houses from the word go? The land barons should be made accountable!@@
HEARTLESS that what it is? Blame both MDC council and ZANU PF government particularly Mugabe
