Zetdc sues Chinotimba’s son over $11 000 bill

Buhera South MP Joseph Chinotimba’s son, Edwin, has been taken to the High Court by the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (Zetdc) seeking to recover over $11 000 in unpaid electricity bills for his farm in Chipinge.

In the summons filed at the High Court on October 26 this year under case number HC10881/16, the power utility accused the legislator’s son of failing to settle the Zetdc bill that had since ballooned to $11 143, 08.

According to court papers, Edwin is the owner of Chehoza Farm, Daisyhill Neighbourhood in Chipinge, where he grows macadamia nuts.
