Zanu PF in Midlands ‘vote-buying gimmick’

THE Zanu PF youth leadership has promised to build 54 000 houses for its members in the Midlands province in a move believed to be a vote-buying gimmick ahead of the general elections due this year.

Youth affairs deputy secretary, Lewis Matutu said the ruling party planned to build houses that would be given to members in all districts in the province.

“Now is the time for the youth to economically benefit from supporting the party [Zanu PF],” he told the youth at a campaign rally in Gweru last weekend.
