Chiyangwa land deal raises more questions

Phillip Chiyangwa is reportedly claiming ownership of Odah Farm through a deed of transfer obtained about three weeks ago while a housing co-operative claims it was granted the same piece of land by government in 2006.

According to documents seen deed of transfer to Sensene (Pvt) Ltd, a subsidiary of Pinnacle Properties owned by Chiyangwa, was done on July 8 this year.

In the deed of transfer, Chiyangwa was given the land by the State freely in the deed issued two days before Local Government Minister Ignatius Chombo was re-assigned to the Home Affairs portfolio.
