Raffingora

Eastern Africa

Raffingora is a small town in the province of Mashonaland West, Zimbabwe, located about 45 kilometres north-east of Chinhoyi. It falls in the Zvimba North Political District. The member of parliament for 2013 to 2018 was Marian Chombo, who was also a cabinet minister. The article therefore describes the town mainly through its position relative to Chinhoyi, the provincial capital, and through its place in the electoral geography of the Zvimba area, rather than through any particular industry or landmark.
