War veterans have expressed outrage over the farm evictions of people settled for close to two decades, leaving them as vagrants with nowhere to go.
The evections have also affected war veterans and their children, a recent case being that of the late liberation war heroine Mavis Rombedzayi whose children have been evicted from a Mazowe farm in Mashonaland Central Province.
Speaking to the Daily News last week, Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association (ZNLWVA)’s Mazowe district chairperson Efanos Mudzimunyi said:
The situation here is so sad; we are being targeted as war veterans. Rombedzayi’s children received a court order to leave the farm but they didn’t know anything about the case. We are not happy with what is happening because we fought for our kids.
We are going to die defending our land from being taken (away) by these bigwigs. This must stop and I think they are telling the president lies about the situation on the ground.
We are suffering as war veterans because of some corrupt individuals who want to undermine the war veterans.
And most of these people are working with the G40 (Generation 40)… we are going to sit down as war veterans and map the way forward on these issues.
