First Lady Grace Mugabe triggered infighting has led to unprecedented chaos at Mashonaland Central’s  at Kitsiyatota mine resulting in the near-assassination of provincial strongman Martin Dinha.
A ZANU PF Provincial Coordinating Committee was yesterday called to look into the issue.
The Zimbabwe Informal Sector Organisation, ZISO, has revealed that this follows fierce internal fighting within ZANU PF for the control of both the lucrative minefields and the province at large. The warring factions are led by Bindura North legislator Kenneth Musanhi and Gift Kanosvamhira on the one hand while the other group is led by Martin Dinha and Jonah Ngwenya.
ZISO said it is disturbed by the politicization of the mining operations in the area.
“The infighting is so severe that Martin Dinha was almost assassinated by unknown assailants,” the organisation said.
The Kitsiyatota mine was recently handed to ZANU PF youths who were given exclusive rights, albeit verbally, by Grace Mugabe.
Youths led by Gift Kanosvimhira working reportedly under an outfit known as the Presidential Youth Initiative and another other group led by Ruwizhi Fernando, Jonah Ngwenya and Batsirai Musona are fighting each other over the control of the gold-rich Kitsiyatota minefields.
On the 28th of July 2015, Kanosvimhira was summoned by the officer commanding Bindura at the Provincial Police Headquarters where he was told by the Dispol that he would be forced to seize operations if he continued to allow MDC-T aligned activities to carry out mining operations, ZISO announced.
The meeting was also attended by prominent ZANU PF activists in Bindura such as Jonah Ngwenya, Ruwizhi Fernando, Batsirai Musona and a woman`s league member only identified as Mai Mbereko.

  1. There is no stopping Zanu PF implosion now that the process is in full swing!

  2. The cancer that is the Zanu PF one party state has got to be surgically removed if this bankrupt country is ever to recover economically.
