Harare's Borrowdale Brooke Country Club has over the past weeks been a hive of activity with reported instructions to reserve parking space for 2 000 vehicles fuelling speculation that President Robert Mugabe's daughter is set to wed soon.
Emirates Airlines Pilot, Simbarashe Chikore last year paid $35 000 as bride price for Bona and was required to present 15 head of cattle to complete the process.
According to sources, state security agents have been seen milling around the premises doing inspections to guarantee safety.
"We also heard that there will also be a shuttle bus taking transporting people to the wedding venue," a source close to the proceedings said.
"With the reserved parking for 2 000 vehicles, it is estimated that guests will total about 4 000 people which would be a very big event."
Speaking at the commissioning and handover of two boys' hostels, a 79-seater bus and a computer laboratory at Chishawasha Mission Primary School in Goromonzi in October last year, Mugabe said the wedding would be held this March.
Bona last November graduated with a Masters Degree in Accounting from Singapore after attaining her first degree from a Chinese university.
Bona and Chikore's relationship reportedly started three years ago when she boarded the plane he was flying on her way to Dubai.
The two reportedly exchanged numbers and became friends.
The friendship developed into an affair until Simba was introduced to the First Family in 2012 where Mugabe had asked him in person whether he was serious about the affair to which he responded positively.
