Zanu PF Member of Parliament for Buhera West, Oliver Mandipaka, is instructing Zanu PF officials in the constituency to identify opposition party supporters who he says should be discriminated from accessing food aid.
Buhera is one of the areas which are severely affected by drought, with reports revealing that some villagers there are surviving on wild fruits as hunger bites.
According to villagers the local MP last week held a meeting at ward 5’s Chani business centre, where he gave the orders to the Zanu PF branch leadership.
“At the meeting he told them (Zanu PF branch leaders) that they should identify all Zanu PF supporters in their area and write down their names so that they receive government sponsored food aid,” said one of the villagers who attended the meeting.
The villager said the former policeman, also directed his supporters to warn all villagers against supporting any other political party which is not Zanu PF.
“At the meeting, he also tasked the leaders to go warn villagers that all those who choose to continue supporting opposition political parties will never benefit from any form of food assistance be it NGO or government sponsored,” she said.
Mandipaka could not be reached for comment as his mobile phone was not reachable.

Vanhu ava vashaya kuti voita sei kuti aid ikwane, ngekuti hurumende inopa token quantities dze chikafu munharaunda. So, to make distribution yezvishoma izvozvo, they discriminate on partisan basis. Asi dai kuri kuzi unganidzai mari yekuti zanu-pf igone kuita zvakati, the very people, ivo vana Orivha iwona awo ndiwo futi anonga ari pamberi kuti munhu wese ngaaduse mare!
Mandipaka-you can go and eat the food with your concubines and we will not die. God is for us all. Gone are the days you can use food as a weapon. We will come for you.
