Mt Darwin West Legislator Banwell Seremwe has threatened villagers with starvation and violence if they do not vote for his party Zanu PF in the 2018 elections.

The MP made the threats in Mt Darwin ward 36.

Heal Zimbabwe Trust reported that on the 28th of February 2017, Mt Darwin West Legislator, Banwell Seremwe threatened people in his constituency with violence and food aid withdrawal in case Zanu PF loses elections in 2018.

"At a meeting held at Dotito Rural Council, Seremwe said that if people vote for the opposition party, Zimbabwe People First (ZimPF) in the 2018 elections, they will be denied food aid," said the trust.

"He also threatened people with violence if they fail to vote for Zanu PF in the 2018 elections," said the trust.

Efforts to contact Hon Seremwe were fruitless as his mobile phone was not reachable.
