A chaotic scene unfolded at Rujeko Primary School in Masvingo on Sunday, as Zanu PF youths, allegedly led by Councillor Sengerai Manyanga, violently disrupted a School Development Committee (SDC) meeting. The youths, who appeared intoxicated, aggressively pushed and shoved attendees while hurling abusive language ¹.

According to eyewitnesses, the youths forced their way into the meeting, imposing Patience Mapfumo as the new chairperson of the committee.

One outraged parent, who wished to remain anonymous, condemned the behavior, saying, “The drunk Zanu PF youths shouted obscenities and forced their way into the meeting. They imposed one Patience Mapfumo to the post of SDC chairperson.”

Another parent added, “They pushed and shoved us for simply seeking transparency.”

The incident has sparked widespread outrage among parents, who are demanding accountability and calling for the meeting to be re-conducted in a peaceful and orderly manner.
