Two government ministers have openly accused high-ranking officials within the Zanu PF party of participating in drug trafficking. Home Affairs Minister Kazembe Kazembe recently claimed that some senior figures abuse their authority to sell illegal substances. This follows a similar public allegation made months earlier by Youth Minister Tino Machakaire, who directly stated that party bigwigs are dealing drugs.

These unusual public accusations point to a major internal conflict, suggesting protected networks are profiting from a national crisis. The claims arrive amid widespread concern over addiction, with surveys showing most citizens believe drug abuse is common in their communities. Young people are disproportionately affected, making up the vast majority of psychiatric admissions related to substances.

In response to the epidemic, authorities have conducted hundreds of raids and made thousands of arrests this year. Observers note that the ministers' charges of official involvement create a stark contrast with the government's own publicized anti-drug initiatives.
