A recent visit by first lady Grace Mugabe to Mashonaland East reportedly sparked some notable conflict after her rally at Murehwa Centre on 21 November 2015.
Zimbabwe Peace Project Reported that cases of harassment, malicious damage to property and looting were documented after the visit wherein complaints and disgruntlement over the distribution of her donations to the people were lodged.
"Disorderly and opaque handling of the truckloads of donations posed a challenge with allegations emerging that a sizable quantity of the "goodies" did not get to the masses as intended," reads ZPP report. "The month also had a lot of food violation cases noted in the province. The government food and input distribution to the vulnerable is not reaching the targeted beneficiaries as it is looted by party and government officials."
ZPP reported that the operating environment was not conducive for ordinary people to freely express their rights as there were cases where some people were forced to do certain actions and associate or assemble against their wishes.
