Zanu PF Guruve district chairperson, Maxwell Nyagomo, recently allegedly forced villagers to attend a Zanu PF meeting at Nyamuseve farm ward 21 in Guruve North.
This was revealed by Zimbabwe Peace Project in its monthly report.
"Nyagomo is alleged to have instructed war veterans to monitor those who would not attend. He stated that those who fail to attend are traitors and for fear of being labelled, villagers were forced to attend the meeting on 1 June," reads ZPP report.
In another incident the ZPP reported that in Mazowe Central at Kakora village ward 10 on 2 June it is alleged that during an MDC-T village mobilization campaign Zanu PF councillor Chipo Chogwiza told MDC-T supporter, Wilfred Mushanawani, to prepare for the worst ahead of the 2018 elections.
"These threats have haunted Mushanawani since suspected ruling party activists burned his homestead to ashes in 2008. It is alleged that Zanu PF youths in ward 12, Bindura North clashed over ownership of land at Chimsiv near Goche farm on 2 June," said ZPP.
"During the violent clashes Tafara Bonde and Tinotenda Bonde assaulted Lawson Hungwe. Hungwe was accused of stealing the land and was assaulted after he was seen pegging a piece of land that Tafara and Tinotenda claim to own and have been illegally parcelling out. Tinotenda and Tafara are the sons of Zanu PF Gushungo branch chairperson Samuel Kaseke Bonde."
ZPP said Zanu PF supporter, Jimmy Gayison, allegedly threatened the security of Howard Kadogo who resides in Ridgeview ward 26 Mount Darwin South. It is reported that Kadogo attended birthday celebrations of National People's Party (NPP) leader Joyce Mujuru on 17 April.
"Kadogo's public support of an opposition political party offended Gayison. On 6 June Gayisoni is alleged to have said he does not tolerate sell-outs and added that Chimutanda's family should go and live with Mujuru," said ZPP.
