*Govt Pledges To Address Landless Chief (94)'s Plight* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?if The Minister of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water, Climate and Rural Resettlement Anxious Jongwe Masuka has pledged to address the plight of Chief Zephania Sigola of Umzingwane District. Chief Sigola (94) does not land for farming after he was only allocated the farmhouse at the 1 600-hectare Springvale Estate. ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* *LATEST: itel S24 (128) $124; S24 (256GB) $159* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

Chief Sigola, whose health is now failing, has got a small portion of land around the farmhouse where he grows maize. Umzingwane MP Brigadier-General (Retired) Levi Mayihlome took the matter to Parliament last week. Mayihlome had asked the minister to inform the National Assembly on when Chief Sigola, including four other chiefs in the district, would be allocated farms. The late former President Canaan Banana’s widow Janet Banana is also in need of land and her family applied for land three years ago. In response, Masuka said: > I gave a policy position regarding the allocation of land in general, but what is emerging is that there is a bit of history to each of these and very specific and unique to the circumstances. > I, therefore, think in order for the Honourable Member (Brig-Gen (Rtd) Mayihlome) to advance these cases, may wish to provide us with additional detail so that we can liaise with the respective offices in Umzingwane and the relevant provinces, and see how we can assist. Masuka said every citizen is free to follow the procedure to apply for land through their respective district lands committees. *More: Chronicle* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
