In the 2019 National Budget, we set aside US$53 million for the same purpose. Ncube added that the process to identify former white farmers who will benefit from compensation is now complete. He argued that the restitution of the former farmers was a noble idea in keeping with the Constitutional requirements of the country. *More: Chronicle* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
