Zimbabwe cops say you shouldn't believe those Facebook posts about Vongai Nadia Mabvirakure going missing. The truth? She sits in a hospital bed with officers watching her day and night. Police Commissioner Paul Nyathi explained how these social media claims mislead everyone who reads them. Mabvirakure faces serious accusations of stealing money from a trust fund.
The person who reported her was Tichabaiwa Gwadu, who works for the Matiza Foundation. In September 2024, Mabvirakure and her business, Green Rebirth Trust, shook hands with the Matiza Foundation. They agreed to build a greenhouse together at Chomupunga Business Centre, located in Murewa. The foundation handed over $15,200 cash directly to Mabvirakure for buying construction materials.
Instead of paying cash for these supplies as promised, she reportedly kept the money for herself. She then bought everything on credit using the Matiza Foundation's name without permission. Later, the supplier called up the Matiza Foundation, asking where their payment was. That phone call sparked an immediate police investigation into what happened with all that cash.
Officers from the Criminal Investigation Department Murewa first checked her house but couldn't find her anywhere. Commissioner Nyathi stated they eventually tracked down Mabvirakure at a local medical facility. She remains under constant police supervision as she receives treatment. Detectives continue gathering evidence and statements from everyone involved in this complicated financial mess.
