Speaking during an outreach meeting with Government departments organised by the Bulawayo Provincial Affairs Minister, Angelina Masuku at Nketa 8 Hall on Sunday, Zanu-PF Central Committee member Elifasi Mashaba called for the arrest of former Cabinet Minister, Saviour Kasukuwere.
Mashaba accuses Kasukuwere of duping Bulawayo residents over stands at Umvutshwa on the outskirts of Bulawayo. In 2016 Kasukuwere, set aside 3 300 hectares of land in Umvutshwa to allocate to the youths. Bulawayo youths were told to pay $50 monthly instalments to the Urban Development Corporation (Udcorp) so that they could be allocated the stands. It later emerged that the land Kasukuwere had set aside for youths was actually private land. Said Mashaba:
There is another burning issue that I thought residents would bring up during this discussion. There are criminals who came here and promised to offer housing stands to Bulawayo residents. Scores of residents were made to pay $50 to Udcorp so that they could be allocated stands in Umvutshwa. One of the criminals who had escaped but has since returned still a criminal is Kasukuwere. We want Kasukuwere to be arrested over Umvutshwa stands. We have people who lost money to Udcorp. Some lost between $50 and $500 even here in Nketa and Emganwini suburbs.
