TWO commercial buildings belonging to the late Zanu-PF politburo member and national hero Sikhanyiso Duke Ndlovu have been attached by the Deputy Sheriff and are set to be auctioned over a $30 000 debt owed to Bulawayo City Council.
The properties were attached last Friday over a debt dating back to 2009.
One of the properties is at the corner of 14th Avenue and George Silundika Street, while the other is at corner Fife Street and Leopold Takawira Avenue in Bulawayo city centre and both house Ndlovu's college, Zimbabwe Distance Education College (ZDECO).
The Deputy Sheriff last Friday advertised the auctioning of the two properties belonging to the late politician.
Bulawayo City Council lawyer Richard Majwabu yesterday confirmed that the properties had been attached by the council due to a debt the company owed the local authority.
Majwabu said the auctioning of the property had been stalled by negotiations between the two parties after ZDECO officials approached the municipality.
ZDECO lawyer Job Sibanda confirmed that his client's property had been set to go under the hammer, but this was stopped after the two parties opened negotiations.
Ndlovu died last month following a stroke and was buried at the National Heroes Acre in Harare.
