Zimura speaks on Avondale property disposal

THE Zimbabwe Music Rights Association (Zimura) has responded to the “growing misinformation” surrounding the disposal of its Avondale property, warning that legal action is underway against those spreading falsehoods. 

In a public notice dated January 12, 2026, Zimura said it had “noted with great concern the proliferation of misinformation circulating on social media and traditional Press platforms”, adding that the allegations appeared to be “a co-ordinated effort to malign the association’s reputation for ulterior motives”. 

The association clarified that it did not own an entire building in Avondale, as had been widely claimed, but rather “just two small flats within the building”.
