Donated maize seed stolen by a senior Zanu-PF official

Maize seed donated by the First Lady Grace Mugabe in Mashonaland West province last week under the Presidential Well Wishers Inputs Scheme was stolen by a senior Zanu-PF official who donated it in his constituency.

Grace said she knew the politician who stole the seed and would do everything to ensure that he returned it.

At that juncture, some people started shouting that it was Mashonaland West provincial chair Temba Mliswa and Zanu-PF political commissar Webster Shamu who stole the seed.

But Mugabe calmed the people saying that the two were not involved in the case.  Grace took the opportunity to urge police officers to be principled and shun corruption.

She said some police officers were harassing vendors on the streets and in the process stealing their wares.
