Marira

Eastern Africa

Marira is a village on the outskirts of Shurugwi in the Midlands Province of Zimbabwe, roughly 25 kilometres south-east of Shurugwi, south-east from the A18. In 2018 Marira villagers came into conflict with the proposed Chachacha Growth Point, which would have evicted them and demolished their homes. The Tongogara Rural District Council claimed that it had given the villagers eviction notices and that their complaints were null and void because the land belonged to the council itself. Tensions also arose with residents of the Donga suburbs of Shurugwi.
