Zanu disrupts project


THE opposition Movement for Democratic Change has lashed out at the role of Zanu (PF) thugs in the disruption of development projects in Matabeleland.
The Arthur Mutambara faction said, "Zanu (PF) activists, working in cahoots with state agents, tried to disrupt development projects in Nka


yi constituency last week.
“The projects had been initiated by the local Member of Parliament for Nkayi, Hon Abednico Bhebhe, through the Parliamentary Constituency Information Centre.”
Last week, at Hlangabeza High School, the thugs threatened to arrest officials from the donor community who had funded the community project. The project included the building of a reservoir tank and construction of girls’ hostels for the school.
The headmaster disclosed that some overzealous Zanu (PF) members had threatened him over the project, and said he feared for his life.
Bhebhe is reported to have, in the previous week, hosted officials from another donor community who had funded development projects at two more schools in the constituency.
Bhebhe had sourced funding for the renovations and construction of classroom blocks at Gababi and Sembeule primary schools, and had come to officially hand over the projects.
On arrival at Gababi School, the MP and officials found that teachers and school officials had been taken to a ‘kangaroo court’ for questioning by state agents.
Parents and children who had gathered at the school to witness the official handover soon dispersed. – Trust Matsilele
