Zanu PF heavyweights and state security agents have been accused of looting foodstuffs, hampers, and farming inputs that were donated to villagers by Mrs. Auxillia Mnangagwa on Wednesday.
Mrs. Mnangagwa had been in Masvingo for a rally at the Masvingo Showgrounds, where thousands of attendees were bused in from across the province. School pupils were reportedly coerced into attending the event.
A Zanu PF source revealed the poor distribution of the donated goods, stating, “Attendees were divided into groups of 10 and made to share a 50kg bag of rice, while top government and Zanu PF officials received 10kg of mealie meal each.”
Further reports from Benjamin Burombo indicated that the donated items were heavily looted by Zanu PF officials and state security agents. “The donated items were stolen by senior party members and state security agents. Senior government officials also stole the items,” a government source said, condemning the actions.
These allegations have raised concerns about the misuse of charitable donations and the abuse of power by political and security elites.
