Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 68134, member: 636"] A Zimbabwean man who lived abroad for more than 40 years faces rejection in his effort to claim his late father's rural property. Davies Muchanyuka returned from the United Kingdom seeking ownership, but Chief Mutasa ruled that the homestead belongs to his father's widow, Mbuya Rosy Muchanyuka, while she is alive. Mbuya Muchanyuka and Emily Mutasa, the widow of Davies' deceased half-brother, accuse him of harassment and illegally seizing part of the property after changing the locks. Davies denies their claims, asserting he maintained the home financially from overseas and his father was unmarried when he built it. Family members counter that Mbuya Muchanyuka raised Davies and paid his education costs at Hartzell High School. They also allege Davies violated a protection order and posted damaging messages online about his stepmother. Chief Mutasa ordered Davies to leave the property and build his own residence elsewhere.
