The Zanu party started abusing power right after Zimbabwe became free in 1980. They claimed false credit for winning freedom and never faced punishment for harming people in Matebeleland and the Midlands. Police reports about their leaders taking money from war funds disappeared without any results. The party grabbed land from white farmers but recently changed direction without saying sorry to anyone. They show no regret about the harm done during farm seizures.

Zanu treats white farmers and ZIPRA fighters very differently. White farmers will receive $3.5 billion from taxes for their lost land. Zipra fighters bought farms with their army pay, but Zanu took these properties away 43 years ago. Many buildings, like Magnet House in Bulawayo, sit empty or ruined today. Some farms went to party friends who paid rent to unknown accounts. The government never explains who holds the legal papers for these stolen places.

Rich party leaders hold more wealth than the $3.5 billion needed for white farmers. The chaotic land program helped hide how much property went to party members. No full land count exists to show who owns what farms. Many trucks bring corn from South Africa because Zimbabwe cannot grow enough food despite all the farm help programs.
