King Munhumutapa seeks to bar govt interference

KING Munhumutapa, born Timothy Chiminya, has approached the High Court and filed a notice to bar Local Government and Public Works minister Daniel Garwe from interfering with his kingship.

Chiminya yesterday confirmed the notice to bar, saying the Local Government minister “now has no say in the Munhumutapa kingship”.

In May this year, Garwe dismissed Chiminya as a “fraudulent impostor” saying government did not recognise his kingship.
