victim reported the incident to Zhombe police but the three actors are
yet to be arrested.
Chief Jabulani Mkombo of Vungu is up in arms against MDC-T supporters
in Ward 8 of Vungu. The ward is under the councillorship of an MDC-T
member, Spiwe Moyo. The chief is accusing the councillor of giving MDCT members farming land in the area without his knowledge. On 10
October 2015, he accused Moyo of giving party members the land in an
effort to dilute Zanu-PF support in the constituency. The Chief has since
given the MDC-T supporters an ultimatum to leave the area before the
onset of the rainy season.
On 6 October 2015, in Gweru, intra-party conflict in the MDC-T came to
the fore when two factions, one allegedly led by Amos Chibaya and the
other supposedly sympathetic to Sessel Zvidzai, were making travel
arrangements to the burial of Thamsanga Mahlangu. Each team was
organizing transport for its supporters. It is believed, Amos Chibaya is a
front for Nelson Chamisa while Sessile Zvidzai is fighting in Morgan
Tsvangirai’s corner.
