The Zimbabwe government might move over 3,600 families from their homes near Tugwi Mukosi dam. These people live in the Chivi and Masvingo areas, where officials plan new projects. A decade ago, about 3,300 other families left when the dam water flooded their land. The new master plan shows how the area will change with farms, tourism spots, and housing.

Local leader Dr Addmore Pazvakavambwa says they prefer keeping people in their communities when possible. He told reporters that moving people away comes last on their list of choices. The government has rules about helping folks affected by these programs. Many people still remember the troubles from 2014 when families rushed to leave as water levels rose. Some still lack good schools and basic services where they have settled.

Officials want to build irrigation systems, fishing projects, and better roads around the dam. They hope to make the area an economic center for the southern region. The public can review these plans for three months before final decisions are made. The dam itself opened in 2017 after years of construction. Many residents worry about their future homes.
