By Langton Ncube| The Morgan Tsvangirai led MDC said President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration should revisit the land policy and equally distribute land to all citizens including the opposition supporters.
Government embarked on a controversial land reform programme at the turn of the millennium which mostly benefited Zanu PF top brass and war veterans.
The former Robert Mugabe administration then, removed former white commercial farmers from their land and replaced them with a few Zanu PF elites.
In a statement Tuesday, MDC-T spokesperson Obert Gutu, said the new government should revisit the controversial land reform programme and make sure that every Zimbabwean gets land.
“In fact, the MDC would like to call upon all i
ts supporters who are in need of agricultural land to promptly apply for land allocation at the relevant government departments. All deserving Zimbabwean citizens, including MDC supporters, shouldn’t be ashamed of applying for land under the land reform program,” said Gutu.
Gutu said his party never opposed the land reform.
“All we have been clamouring for is that the land reform should be undertaken in a holistic, sustainable and non–partisan manner,” he said.
“Those Zimbabweans who grabbed several farms under the land reform program should be made to relinquish these multiple farms and remain with only one farm per family to enable other landless Zimbabweans to also benefit from the land reform exercise. The land reform program shouldn’t be abused and bastardised in order to create land barons,” he said.

Did not Morgan Sinyoro Tsvangirai say he would reverse the land reform programme once in power? Which land do you now want you fools?
Are you even capable of listening to your clangorous but tired words? What does it mean when Kutu encourages his moribund movement’s stupidly gullible supporters not to be ashamed of applying for the same land whose repossession from whites you myopically opposed? You must be an incorrigible fool, whose only suitable station is a psychiatric centre!
MDC has lost focus and is clutching at straws to remain relevant. The ED chokeslam has left them in sixes and sevens with no credible game plan. Can someone remind these idiots that elections are looming and they have not done anything to convince the electorate to vote for them? They seem to be obsessed with throwing shade in everything ED does. One moment they say ED is illegitimate and the next they demand equal treatment from him. This is so pathetic. And by the way, what happened to the grand coalition?
little mind, your so-called ‘white farms’ ARE IN EUROPE!
Of course “Zimbabwe is for Zimbabwean people”!
It is for those Zimbabweans who will repatriate it & PROTECT IT from white THIEVES, from self-hating sell-outs, and from those who serve, slave for and worship the pale racist devils.
If Mai Mugabe has ‘multiple farm’, you can bet that African Lioness would protect and preserve it for African use.
Zimbabwe has massive amount of land considering it relatively small population.
No African needs envy another African, when there is an abundant of land for all Africans to be had in Zimbabwe.
U r still in Mugabe’s slumber! Wake up !Zanoids are pathological foolish sloganeers !!Zimbabwe is for Zimbabwean people not Grace with multiple farms not to mention a list of all chefs who looted on white farms!!
No amount of hogwash propaganda will work ,MDC only said we want equitable distribution of land not rubbish u r vomiting ,this is not ZTV or Herald !
“Tsvangirai Demands Land From Mnangagwa”
These were the same sell-outs of the MDC-Traitors Party who not only opposed African repatriating their Ancestral Lands from the invading white THIEVES; these are the same sell-outs who PUBLICLY PROMISED to gift back African properties to criminal colonialists, who HAVE NO NATURAL OR LEGITIMATE RIGHT to even one cubic centimeter of African land.
May be the sell-outs should go to europe and demand land from their mental slave masters.
Zim’s land is for those who INVESTED THEIR ALL to repatriate the properties from the cruel and criminal colonialists.
And Zim’s land MUST BE for those who WILL PRESERVE & PROTECT African lands from evil european invaders.
Sell-outs of MDC-Traitors CANNOT BE TRUSTED to secure things Africans!
And ‘things African’ have to be preserved for this generation and for future generations of Africans.
Unfortunately, the MDC opposed the land revolution in order to placate the white constituency in their midst such as the Commercial Farmers Union (CFU), western donors and embassies, thus leaving their supporters without a piece of a key national resource. Sorry manhingi.

MDC must focus in galvanizing people to go and register to vote if there are to remain relevant
These MDC idiots must be dreaming. Let them be assured that no opposition supporter will get an inch of land. They opposed the land reform programme and that is it!
