By A Correspondent| Zanu PF youth league has demanded that government repossesses at least 15 of the 16 farms allegedly owned by former First Lady Grace Mugabe and redistribute them to youths.

This follows claims by President Emmerson Mnangagwa that the former First Family owns a staggering 16 commercial farms in a revelation that could reignite the public spat between the Zanu PF leader and his predecessor Robert Mugabe.

Zanu PF youth league deputy secretary Lewis Matutu, who is also a member of the party’s politburo, said the ex-Zanu PF women’s league boss should be left with one farm and the rest subdivided and distributed to landless youths.

“Now that it has been revealed that Grace Mugabe owns 16 farms, we are demanding that she chooses one and the other 15 be sub-divided into 10-hectare plots for youths within two weeks,” Matutu tweeted.

Matutu’s boss, Pupurai Togarepi said the farms should be repossessed.

“We want the farms back!” Togarepi stated.

Mugabe, who was toppled in a coup in November 2017 to pave way for Mnangagwa, has repeatedly accused the new administration of hounding his family.

At some point, Mugabe claimed that the Mnangagwa regime was harassing workers at his Blue Roof mansion
