Zanu-PF youths stage demo against Gift Banda

ZANU-PF youths in Bulawayo yesterday demonstrated against the city's suspended deputy mayor Gift Banda for continuing with construction work on ill-gotten land in Ascot.

Councillor Banda and four others were suspended by the Government two weeks ago for alleged abuse of office.

He is alleged to have illegally acquired land at Ascot for the construction of town houses.

He also got a lease for land to construct a social club at Hume Park.

Yesterday, the youths marched to Clr Banda's Ascot stand waving placards and singing songs denouncing him.
