Seed only for senior officials

A ZANU-PF member in Marondera, a large town in Mashonaland East Province, told IRIN that senior army officers responsible for seed distribution were diverting it to the parallel market.

Only a few ZANU-PF provincial leaders were allocated seed and fertiliser, including the “A1” small-scale and communal farmers and the “A2” new black commercial farmers. “Ordinary party members, such as myself and other villagers, [were told] that the inputs had run out,” said the ZANU-PF member, who declined to be identified,

 

Known or suspected MDC supporters did not receive any maize seed or fertiliser from the soldiers, who are responsible for distribution
