Opposition Supporters Denied Food Aid In Rural Areas | Report

Opposition Supporters Denied Food Aid In Rural Areas | Report

Supporters of opposition political parties in Zimbabwe are reportedly being removed from the lists of beneficiaries for food aid and farming inputs distribution in rural areas.

According to the Zimbabwe Peace Project (ZPP) Monthly Monitoring Report for September 2024, the distribution of food aid is occurring along partisan lines.

The report highlights nine separate incidents in which a total of 85 individuals were denied aid due to their political affiliations. Reads part of the report:

In one of the 19 villages in Ward 8 in Vungu district, only 14 families have been benefiting from government-sponsored food aid in a village of about 65 families.

The narration from some of the victims indicates that when a decision to increase the number of beneficiary households was made, instead of adding from the rest of the families in the village, additional beneficiaries from the ruling party were added from other villages because the rest of the families were deemed unfit due to their political affiliations.

One of the victims narrated: “We are not getting the food rations because they say go and feed from your Father’s plate. We are not even told about the distribution but sometimes we are told by people that our names were on the list and were called out but we do not get the food, meaning someone is benefitting on our behalf”.

In Mwenezi North’s Ward 4, Kraal Head Chitemere is accused of only issuing the Pfumbvudza inputs solely to ruling party supporters, further marginalizing those who do not align with the political elite.

In Mwenezi North, Ward 4 Kraal Head Chitemere of Village 2, discriminately excluded two families from potential beneficiaries of fertiliser under the Pfumvudza supporting scheme stating that they never attend ZANU PF meetings and were not participating in the party activities. He declared the seedling program was for ruling party supporters only.

The families, facing a hostile environment, requested a letter from Chitemere to relocate to other villages but were denied, labelling them CCC members and claiming their movement to other villages would negatively impact others.

Traditional leaders are reportedly forcing villagers to participate in labour-intensive infrastructure projects, presenting these initiatives as part of a “food for work” program. Reads the report:

These have been noted in Vungu district in Midlands, Masvingo North, Bikita East, Gutu Central and Mutare North among others. In Ward 10, Mutare North in Manicaland, kraalhead Phanuel Hama Marange is leading the villagers who benefit from the social welfare distributed food aid in making damaged roads.

The villagers work with bare hands and use their own tools such as shovels, wheelbarrows and hoes.

Reports also state that villagers are fined US$1 should they absent themselves. In a similar incident in Bikita South in Masvingo, villagers who wanted to benefit from food aid were assigned duties under the food for work program and worked for two months but have not received the promised aid.

If this is true, President Munagagwa needs to look into this, its tarnishing Zanu PF unless its instruction from him, Pendula also needs to do investigative journalism and send a message to cheifs council

Uyo Hama Marange is an Elder of the Seventh Day Advertist Church. It appears the Seveth Day Church is being tarnished by its members who dabble in politics and act contary to their teachings

Unfortunately he cannot be reprimanded by the church because he is Zanu Pf. He sees himself above the church. Anototyisa vafundisi.
Hombre · 5 months ago
In the Vungu village, 14 families are Zanu Pf and 65 are opposition (most likely Chamisa's). So the minority party is starving the majority. 22% : 78%. Just an observation

one of the greatest Signs That There is No Love And Unity in Zimbabwe... irrespective of the parties you are affiliated with...US AID is for Everyone who needs it...not ZANU PF affiliates... that's why ma saga ayo ane flag ye USA, akanyorwa kunzi US AID not ZANU PF aid...

Then you shouldn't accept US aid, go and take the aid with Chinese or Russian flags if there is such aid 😂😂
heartman · 5 months ago
you seem to have lost the gist of the donation. donors give the government to distribute to all citizens not party followers sir/madam. its not like Zanu sourced the food for its bootlickaz.

it shouldn't be about which part one belong too, truth be told we all pay tax and most of the things are a results of tax payers contributions if not donated.

What is funny is that it has the American flag on it I have never seen any with the Chinese flag , Zanu supporters say that they hate America right, so why are they rushing to get that aid while those who are western leaning are not getting that aid.
