Heal Zimbabwe trust reported that residents of Destiny Park in Dangamvura ward 15 were forced to make $1 contributions per household on the 10th of June 2017 by Destiny for Africa Network officials acting on instructions from Obadiah Musindo the leader of Destiny for Africa Network.
"The money was meant to buy a stone sculpture of President Mugabe. The stone sculpture was handed over to the President on the 16th of June 2017 in Mutare during the Zanu PF youth interface rally. The residents were all ordered to attend the rally at Sakubva stadium as a way of showing their allegiance to the President," said the trust.
The trust also said Zanu PF youths moved around schools ordering school authorities to release buses that were used to ferry Zanu PF supporters to the rally that was attended by the President at Sakubva Stadium in Mutare on the 16th of June 2017.
"Notable buses present at the rally include St Columbus Secondary School, Mutambara Secondary School, Marange Secondary School, Mweya Mutsvene and Gaza high school among many other buses," said the trust.
