Former Cabinet Minister Joel Gabbuza fights for his life after an axe attack. The former Binga South MP faces charges that he had an affair with another man's wife. The angry husband attacked Gabbuza with an axe on Friday night. False rumors spread that the politician had died from his injuries. His family confirmed he remains alive and receives medical care.

Gabbuza stays at Hwange Colliery Hospital where doctors treat his wounds. His son says the former minister can speak again after the brutal assault. The family plans to move him to Mpilo Hospital for better treatment. Police have not released official details about the attack. Local people believe jealousy caused the violence between the men.

The attacker ran away after hitting Gabbuza with the weapon. Authorities search for the suspect who fled the scene. Sources say the man suspected his wife of cheating with the politician. The incident happened late Friday evening at an undisclosed location. Police continue investigating the attempted murder case.

Gabbuza served as a politician for more than twenty years. He first won election as Binga MP under the MDC party in 2000. Boundary changes moved him to represent Binga South starting in 2008. The opposition party recalled him from Parliament during October 2023. He served as Water Resources Minister from 2009 until 2013.
