By Terrence Mawawa, Chivi| Today marks 10 months, 10 days since First Lady Grace Mugabe first launched her death rallies last year. The meetings saw several people killed in horrific stampedes as Mrs Mugabe dished out goods stolen by ZIMRA from poor citizens at the Beitbridge border post.
Scores of people were injured at Shindi High School as they scambled for First Lady Grace Mugabe’s donations.

At Shindi High School, villagers were nearly crushed to death as they scramble for maize meal, shoes and grocery items distributed by Chivi Rural District Council Chairman Killer Zivhu, who showered praises on Mrs Mugabe. Zivhu described the First Lady as a woman who had a kind and warm heart for the starving masses.
“We wish to thank our kind -hearted First Lady for giving each household here mealie meal and no one has been left out of the food distribution process.Therefore we should support those who care for us and let us all vote for Zanu PF in 2018,”said Zivhu.
This came at a time when there are reports her party Zanu PF is intercepting food relief bags from various donor agencies in a way to silence perceived opposing voices.
Political analysts believe Mrs Mugabe is using food aid to penetrate the volatile province of Masvingo. The First Lady is working with President Robert Mugabe’s nephew Patrick Zhuwao, Higher Education Minister Jonathan Moyo and National Commissar Saviour Kasukuwere to advance the G40 faction’s cause in the explosive province.
