Former energy minister Fortune Chasi has castigated the demolition of houses in Budiriro saying the decision to conduct the operation now can only be done by people with functional brains.

Chasi expressed his views in a Twitter post which says;

“BUDIRIRO DEMOLITIONS: hapana munhu ane dzaka kwana ano pwanyira vanhu dzimba nguva ino unless they are USING KIDNEYS FOR THINKING,” said Chasi.

Over 100 families were left homeless after the City of Harare and the Zimbabwe Republic Police descended on Budiriro early this week where they razed down people’s houses.

Eye witnesses said the police used force, beating up people and firing shots to intimidate those who were resisting the operation.
