Home Affairs Minister Kazembe spoke out against the police at a workshop in Kwekwe. He said police officers ask for bribes too much these days. He was upset that top officers keep going on trips abroad while new officers don't even have uniforms to wear. He plans to stop signing papers for these foreign trips.
Kazembe also pointed out that police training has gotten worse. He hasn't seen any graduation ceremonies for new officers in his five years as minister, even though other forces still hold them. He wants the police to focus on getting basic needs met before traveling.
Meanwhile, people living at Arnold Farm are worried. Some of them got arrested for speaking up against someone trying to take their land. A man named Musanhi said they can't even plant their crops because of all the trouble.
The farm dispute turned violent. VP Mohadi's son claims the people living there broke things and hurt some guards. His cousin said one worker got his hand broken in the fight. The people living there say they're the ones being attacked.
This isn't the first time Arnold Farm has seen trouble. Back in 2017, police kicked people out and knocked down their homes. The people fought back in court and won the right to stay. Now they're asking for help again to keep their homes safe.
