Cuthbert Dube faces eviction after failing to pay rent for 5 months

Former ZIFA president Cuthbert Dube is facing eviction from a house in Alexandra Park owned by FBC Bank after going five months without paying $1 500 a month in rentals for five months.

FBC has since taken Dube to the High Court after he failed to comply with a notice to vacate the property. Part of FBC’s High Court application reads:

Despite demand, the defendant has neglected and refused to pay rent for the notice period and further refused to vacate the plaintiff’s property after the expiry of the notice period,” FBC Bank said in the summons. Wherefore, the plaintiff claims against the defendant is for the ejectment of the defendant and all those claiming occupation through him from number 17 Churchill Road Alexandra Park, Harare and payment of agreed monthly rent for the notice period in the sum of $4 500 with interest at the rate of 5% per annum from date of summons to date of payment in full.

Dube is yet to enter appearance to defend.
