Zanu PF officials in Mbire area have reportedly threatened to starve the villagers if they did not support the ruling party.
Heal Zimbabwe reported that the threats were made during a meeting at Mbire ward 17.
"On the 15th of September 2016, Zanu PF Councillor, Themba Zuze together with the Zanu PF ward chairperson, Shudern Bandira held a meeting at Majongwe Primary school," said the trust.
"At the meeting, they openly told villagers that everyone in the ward should support their party or risk being barred from receiving food aid. They warned that all opposition supporters will continue to be sidelined from food aid as this will "teach them a lesson" on who to vote for in the 2018 elections."
