Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association confronts President Emmerson Mnangagwa over his land tenure initiative that demands farmers pay 500 dollars per hectare for title deeds. Veterans believe the program represents the privatization of agricultural reforms they secured through armed struggle. Businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei leads the Land Tenure Implementation Committee despite facing United States sanctions for corruption allegations. Provincial leaders gathered in Bulawayo and pledged resistance against what they term land theft by government elites.

War veteran Joseph Chinguwa filed court papers challenging the constitutional validity of Mnangagwa's tenure system. The legal action seeks declarations that agricultural land cannot be privatized without parliamentary legislation. Critics describe the initiative as transferring compensation costs from the government to individual farmers. Revenue collected through the levy will settle a 3.5 billion dollar debt owed to former white commercial farmers under a 2020 compensation agreement.
