Report: War Vets sue Mnangagwa over $3.5 billion white farmers compensation deal. In court papers seen by the publication, the applicants which include Amos Sigauke, Kossam Mutsinze, Shoorai Nyamangondo, Daphine Kanoti, Dadirai Njitimana, Rueben Zulu, Joseph Chinguwa, Hazvinei Machingura, Cairo Mhandu, Digmore Ndiya and Godfrey Gurira said it received the news of the compensation deal with shock and dismay:
A War Veterans Pressure Group has submitted an application at the High Court in a bid nullify the government’s decision to compensate commercial white farmers who lost their land in the infamous Land reform in the recently signed US$3,5 billion global compensation deed, New Zimbabwe reports.
Since independence in 1980, the indigenous black race of Zimbabwe has been making futile representations to the government demanding necessary arrangements for subsequent payment of compensations for the various sufferance occasioned upon them by and during the direct rule of the occupying force, the white race, including the return of their land to them.
In short, the government as both led by the late Robert Mugabe and (now) Emmerson Mnangagwa has not seemed bothered to address positively the issue of indigenous black race’s compensation for the ills they suffered as a direct consequence of government or its agents’ actions.
It was therefore with shock and dismay that the genuine progressive war veterans, in particular those newly resettled on former settler occupied farms, on July 29 received news that the government, through Masuka and Ncube had entered into an exclusive compensation deed.
The application which also cites Agriculture Minister Anxious Masuka, Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube and representatives of the Commercial Farmers Union seeks to stop President Mnangagwa from implementing the July 29 agreement.
