An alleged female goblin is reportedly terrorising teachers at Kandana Primary School in Bulilima, Matabeleland South Province.
Teachers at the school have threatened to leave if the situation is not resolved. The school is situated close to the late Chief Kandana’s homestead.
The issue is said to have begun in June 2023, but it was only reported to community leaders this term.
One teacher told <a href="https://bmetro.co.zw/female-goblin-terrorises-teachers/">B-Metro</a> that the alleged goblin had been visiting the school at night and dropping items at their homes. Said the teacher:
<blockquote>
It comes at night and drops kitchen utensils, sometimes we just hear movements as if it is someone walking.
In some cottages, some teachers say they hear the sounds of someone cooking. Some of our colleagues have seen it in visions and they say it has a female body.
</blockquote>
Another teacher claimed that while sleeping at night, the invisible creature seems to sit on them, creating a sensation of heaviness on their bodies.
The teacher said that although they have not experienced any sexual assault, there is a lingering fear that such an incident could occur at any time. Said the teacher:
<blockquote>
We suspect that it could be the same goblin that terrorised police officers at Gwambe clinic because it attacked male officers sexually and on this side those who see it in “visions” see a female one.
If nothing is done we will be forced to ask for transfers because we do not know what will happen next.
</blockquote>
The school is situated not far from Gwambe Clinic, where police officers reportedly fled from “female goblins” that were allegedly engaging in sexual encounters with them while they slept.
The community held a meeting and decided to enlist witch hunters to address the issue. They are currently mobilising funds for the exorcism process.
Village head Edward Magutshwa, in a voice note to the diaspora community, appealed for financial help to address the problem. He said:
<blockquote>
We have been faced with a goblin problem that is troubling the teachers at Kandana Primary School and in the villages.
We fear the school can be closed if the matter is not addressed. We appeal for financial help to address the problem
</blockquote>
Local councillor Ambassador Mabehdi Ngulani saidt he is aware of the issue but has not yet obtained detailed information, as he has been away from the community.

Teachers at Kandana Primary School are scared of a female goblin that visits at night. They hear noises, feel something sitting on them, and see things being dropped. The goblin may have a female body. Some teachers fear sexual assault. The community is getting witch hunters to help. They need money for this. The village head asked for help. The councillor is aware of the issue but doesn't know all the details yet. Everyone is worried and wants the problem to be solved.

Alleged Female Goblin Terrorises Teachers

Villagers in Ward 16, Dombodema, Bulilima District in Matabeleland South Province, are losing livestock, especially goats, to hyenas and jackals.
Ward 16 councillor Fortune Dube told <a href="https://newsday.co.zw/southerneye/local/article/200028072/hyenas-terrorise-bulilima-villagers">Southern Eye</a> that they suspect the hyenas could be coming from Botswana as the area is close to the Zimbabwe-Botswana border. Said Dube:
<blockquote>
Our goats are being attacked at night by the hyenas. We suspect that the wild animals are coming from Mapouka which is an area on the Botswana side.
They started terrorising us in January by breaking into our kraals. At times they kill three goats per night at one homestead.
This happens in homesteads where there are no dogs. My neighbour has since lost five goats, twice with the latest being last week. Another one also lost three goats recently.
</blockquote>
Dube said the council is set to report the issue to the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority (ZIMPARKS).
ZIMPARKS spokesperson Tinashe Farawo said they have not received such a report, adding that communities to report such issues to the local authorities. He said:
<blockquote>
If we receive a report we will react within the shortest possible time so that we help our communities.
</blockquote>
Human-wildlife conflict in Zimbabwe, particularly involving hyenas, poses significant challenges for local communities.
These conflicts arise due to various factors, including threats to human life, interference with community activities, and damage to villagers’ livelihoods.
Wild animals, such as hyenas, often encroach into villages in search of food and water, where they kill both humans and livestock.

Hyenas And Jackals Threaten Livestock In Bulilima

A Zimbabwean company, Optate Africa, says it intends to establish a 200-megawatt (MW) wind power plant in Mayobodo, Mangwe, in Plumtree, Matabeleland South Province.
As reported by the <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/200mw-wind-power-plant-for-mangwe/">Chronicle</a>, the project is to be carried out in partnership with GE, a turbine manufacturing and development company.
Optate Africa says the project results will be measured by the number of MW installed, the number of residential customers that will benefit from the electricity supplied and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions avoided on an annual basis.
The company has sought a 25-year lease from Mangwe Rural District Council for 100 hectares of land to set up the power plant. Reads part of the notice by Mangwe RDC:
<blockquote>
Notice is hereby given in terms of Section 71 of Rural District Council Act (Chapter 29:13) that Mangwe Rural District Council intends to lease an area of 100 hectares to Optate Africa for a period of 25 years for the purpose of setting up a renewable energy project. The project area is in Mangwe District.
</blockquote>
In a statement on its website, Optate Africa said that part of the power generated by the project will be sold to ZESA. It said:
<blockquote>
A fraction of the power generated by the project will be sold to the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC) under a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement and the other part will be supplied to the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP).
</blockquote>
Optate Africa said the negative impact of wind power on the environment is negligible compared to conventional electricity generation which contributes to global warming and climate change. It said:
<blockquote>
Wind power does not produce harmful emissions or hazardous waste, it does not deplete natural resources, nor does it cause environmental damage through resource extraction, transport and waste management.
Wind turbines occupy less than one per cent of the land area. Once up and running, existing activities, such as agriculture and ease of access to the site, can continue around them.
A wind farm development (facility) is subject to environmental impact assessment, in this case by the Environmental Management Agency (EMA), to ensure that the potential effects on the immediate environment (including flora and fauna) are carefully considered before construction of the facility is allowed.
</blockquote>
The company said a social Impact Assessment was done and permission was granted by community elders in Bulilima.
Wind power is a renewable energy source that involves harnessing the power of the wind to generate electricity.
It’s a clean and sustainable energy option that can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels.
Wind turbines are used to capture the energy from the wind and convert it into electricity.
Greenhouse gases are gases that trap heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming and these gases include carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide.
Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are a major factor driving climate change and its associated impacts like rising temperatures, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events such as severe drought, flooding and tropical cyclones.

Zimbabwean Company Plans 200MW Wind Power Plant For Plumtree

Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) leader Nelson Chamisa has expressed gratitude to voters in Bulilima after the opposition party won two out of three wards under Bulilima Rural District Council in by-elections held on 3 September.
Bulilima RDC wards 1, 14 and 16, fell vacant following the resignation of two ZANU PF councillors, Tonny Mlotshwa and Ntungamili Dube and the death of Delani Mabhena, also of ZANU PF.
But CCC, formed in January this year, managed to snatch wards 1 and 16, while ZANU PF retained Ward 14.
Posting on Twitter this Sunday, Chamisa also thanked the party’s foot soldiers as well as Zimbabweans based in the diaspora for assisting the party to make electoral gains in rural Matabeleland. Wrote Chamisa:
<blockquote>
THANK YOU BULILIMA… A BIG WIN against all odds, CCC won 2/3 of the wards previously held by ZANU PF in yesterday’s by-elections.
We’re a CITIZEN’S MOVEMENT. Thanks to our ground forces, the Change Champions. Kudos to the diaspora for the support. All glory be to God!
</blockquote>
According to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC), voter turnout was slightly above 50 per cent in the three wards.
CCC’s Makhadi Moyo and Ephraim Moyo won wards 16 and 1 respectively, while ZANU PF’s Experience Dube won Ward 14.
CCC has been barred from campaigning in various parts of the country, some of its MPs have been in pre-trial detention for months and its activists have been violently attacked by thugs recently in Gokwe and Wedza.

We Won In Bulilima "Against All Odds" - Chamisa

CCC candidate for Ward 14 council by-election in Bulilima District, Ephraim Moyo, said that the suffering of Zimbabwean citizens in countries such as South Africa and Botswana inspired him to run for political office in order to change their fortunes.
Moyo will face ZANU PF candidate Experience Dube and ZAPU candidate Linos Moyo in the by-election set for 3 September 2022.
In an interview with CITE’s <a href="https://cite.org.zw/author/senzeni/">Senzeni Ncube</a>, Moyo said the suffering being experienced by Zimbabweans in the diaspora made him contest in the upcoming by-elections. He said:
<blockquote>
I saw the suffering of our children in other countries as I also worked in Botswana and South Africa, you find a teacher or a lawyer doing menial works such as gardening in other countries, this pushed me to join hands with others and help in this situation so that we can change the government maybe the new one will hear the cries of the people.
</blockquote>
Moyo expressed confidence in his chances of winning the council seat even though he conceded that most villagers are afraid to openly support the opposition CCC due to intimidation.
Another CCC candidate, Ephraim Moyo, who is contesting for the vacant Ward 1 seat said resource constraints have hampered his campaign. Moyo said:
<blockquote>
The challenge that we have is economic challenges, people want to help us but they have no money, most of the time we use bicycles to travel and when there is someone with a car, they also assist but again the challenge becomes fuel because our ward is big.
</blockquote>
He said if he is elected, he will work on finishing some projects in the ward that include a clinic and a police base. Said Moyo:
<blockquote>
The first thing is to respect the people and do what they love and fulfil their wishes. Secondly, there are projects which were left incomplete, there is a clinic that is still incomplete and we are not sure where the challenge is.
The other one is to finish the police base because we have a high crime rate in our village, so those are the projects that I am hoping to fulfil.
I wish to have a vocational skills school where children can learn skills like carpentry, building, sewing, and cooking because I am a carpenter myself so that is what I am hoping to see in my community.

CCC Aspiring Councillor Says Zim Crisis Inspired Him To Join Politics

Some resettled farmers in Ward 16 Bulilima West were allegedly threatened with eviction from their farms by suspected ZANU PF members after they attended meetings organised by the opposition ZAPU.
The reported intimidation comes ahead of the by-elections to be held in the district on 3 September 2022.
ZAPU has fielded two candidates in Ward 14 and Ward 16, Linos Moyo and Hitman Ncube, respectively.
The party has resolved to lodge a formal complaint of intimidation with the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) over the intimidation of villagers by suspected ZANU PF members.
In an interview with CITE, ZAPU elections coordinator for both Ward 14 and 16, Artwell Ndlovu, revealed that villagers in Ward 16 were threatened with eviction by people they know. He said:
<blockquote>
I am on the campaign trail and just heard this message from villagers who sounded the alarm as soon as it happened.
The situation is bad because a group of people, claiming to be from Plumtree told the villagers in Village 17 in Ward 16 that if they continued attending ZAPU meetings they would be chased from where they stay.
Some of the members in the group were identified by villagers.
The villagers stay in resettlement areas and are now afraid that they would be chased away.
This group knew people had attended meetings because ZAPU is on its campaign trail and has been talking to many villagers.
Moreso, the group also threatened people in Village 29 and locals were crying that they would be targeted for harassment as they were expressing themselves.
This is a worrying situation because this group knows how local systems function.
</blockquote>
Ward 1 aspiring candidate for CCC in Tjankwa, Bulilima West, Ephraim Moyo, also claimed he was intimidated by ZANU PF members.

Villagers Threatened With Eviction For Attending Meetings Organised By Opposition

CCC member Thokozani Khupe said the opposition party needs a thousand votes to gain control of three wards in the upcoming by-election in Bulilima.
The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) will hold by-elections in Bulilima on 3 September 2022 in Ward 1, 14 and 16 following the resignation of ZANU PF councillors, Tonny Mlotshwa and Ntungamili Dube and the death of Delani Mabhena.
Currently, ZANU PF controls 21 councillors in Bulilima Rural District Council while the opposition MDC Alliance has one ward.
Speaking during a recent Twitter space organised by the CCC Mthwakazi, a group of the party’s supporters based in the diaspora, Khupe, who was the deputy Prime Minister during the GNU era (2009-2013), said:
<blockquote>
The by-election will build a strong foundation for the 2023 election. Bulilima used to be our stronghold up until 2013 and it is very possible for us to regain it.
We can only manage to generate these votes, if we have the right tools to use, hence the reason why we are appealing for your assistance in terms of fuel, t-shirts and flyers.
The manpower we have is ready to work but people need assistance to be able to interact with the electorate.
As you know, people vote for the party which interacts with them constantly. That is why it is important that we keep in touch with our electorate until September 2, a day before voting on September 3, 2022.
This can only happen if we go to all the villages and be there every day. That’s why we need fuel, fliers, and t-shirts.
Campaign teams can’t go without t-shirts and regalia because people want to identify with them through their regalia. People need that regalia so we are appealing to you.
We have people who are not registered, people who don’t want to vote and passive voters so we want to change them and make sure everybody votes because every vote counts.
We are going to be interacting with people on the voters’ roll, who are registered, talking to them to generate the 900 and 1 000 votes.

1 000 Votes Needed For CCC To Win Bulilima By-election - Khupe

A herd of over 100 buffalos are reportedly roaming in areas around Makhulela, Huwana and Khame in Bulilima District where they are wreaking havoc and instilling fear in villagers in the district, The Standard reports.
Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority (ZimParks) rangers have reportedly killed some of them and there are no reports of death or injuries caused by the roaming buffaloes according to Bulilima Rural District Council CEO Brown Ncube:
<blockquote>They are causing a lot of fear and are a threat to humans as you know they are dangerous animals. But at the moment we have not yet heard of reports of people injured or killed by them.</blockquote>
A report about the Buffaloes that was released by Habakkuk Trust revealed that ZimParks rangers in the company of a veterinary doctor are working towards averting the crisis:
<blockquote>The buffaloes, which were visibly dehydrated, are in a desperate search for water as natural reservoirs in most areas have since dried. The buffaloes gunned down were in close proximity to households, one of them was shot as it was roaming around a granary.
Tests for anthrax and other zoonotic diseases that can be transmitted to domestic animals will be conducted on the samples</blockquote>
A villager that spoke to the publication about the buffaloes:
<blockquote>We really have problems here, recently we had elephants causing problems and now a herd of buffaloes invades our area.</blockquote>
The same area in Bulilima was also invaded by some elephants that destroyed some infrastructure sometime early this year.

A Herd Of Over 100 Buffalos Terrorise Bulilima Villagers

Telecoms Moguls Strive Masiyiwa’s ‘Re-ImagineRural’ Initiative has completed a 100KW solar plant in Bulima District’s Ndolwane area, The Chronicle reports.
The energy from the solar plant will befit 70 small businesses according to the businessman who wrote on his Facebook page:
<blockquote>
There is a place in rural Zimbabwe called Ndolwane. It is in a part of the country known as Matabeleland. We chose it as the first site of our ‘Re-Imagine Rural Ugesi Minigrids’.
We built a 100KW solar power plant at its small business center. It now provides power to 70 small businesses, residents and other activities. 
Some are using the power to irrigate market gardens to sell vegetables. Someone is planning to do a major poultry business using its power. We are expanding its power line grid to eventually reach a 10km radius.
</blockquote>
Masiyiwa further confirmed the initiative bought its own rig and it will start drilling boreholes in dry communities like Ndolwane very soon:
<blockquote>We have just bought our own water drilling rig and as soon as it arrives we plan to drill deep well boreholes in places like Ndolwane, where it is dry. It will help communities with market gardening and water for their cattle</blockquote>
Masiyiwa says the initiative is his plan for rural Zimbabwe and he said he is excited about it:
<blockquote>Several global philanthropists have asked for presentations on how this model can be used in other African countries. This really excites me.</blockquote>

The Primary and Secondary education ministry has been advised to turn to traditional healers to help tackle the issue of goblins that are terrorising teachers in Matabeleland South’s Ntenjane Primary School in Bulilima, The Chronicle reports.
This was confirmed by Matabeleland South acting Provincial Education Director Mr Lifias Masukume who spoke to the publication and said:
<blockquote>This is a very difficult and sensitive matter. These issues of goblins cannot be proven scientifically, neither can they be dismissed. So, in order to protect the teachers and the pupils too, there is need to approach the matter carefully. I got a call with regards to the matter yesterday (Wednesday) that teachers are running away from school and I have since engaged the District Schools Inspector.
I told her to get hold of the District Administrator so that they look for the traditional leaders who are the owners of the place, so that they can find traditional healers who will know how to appease the spirits or chase away whatever it is that is troubling teachers there
We however, cannot rule out such spiritual things being true in other schools. As a ministry, we do not have the powers to preside over such, therefore we will hand over such matters to community leaders to engage those with the powers to deal with the spiritual realm</blockquote>
Teachers who have abandoned the school because of the goblins vowed never to return to the school <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2020/02/21/teachers-narrate-horror-stories-of-how-goblins-are-terrorising-them-at-ntenjane-primary-school-in-bulilima/">as they narrated horror stories</a> of how they wake up sleeping on the floor despite sleeping on their beds the previous night and many more stories.

ZRP in <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Matabeleland_province">Matabeleland</a> has expressed concern over stock theft reports particularly in Bulilima, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Plumtree">Plumtree,</a> Mangwe and Figtree The Chronicle reports. The police also expressed concern over illegal beef markets as they believe the beasts are being slaughtered in the bush and the meat is harvested for sale in some parts of the province.
Speaking to the publication, Matabeleland South provincial police spokesperson Chief Inspector Philisani Ndebele said:
<blockquote>As police we are concerned about cases of stocktheft which have become rampant whereby the culprits steal the beasts, slaughter them in the bush and leave the carcasses there.These cases are being recorded mostly in Plumtree, Bulilima, Figtree and Mangwe areas.
We suspect that these culprits take this meat and supply people or places that sell beef unofficially. These points become a ready market for stock theft suspects. We appeal to members of the public that might see people selling beef to alert us. People should also desist from buying meat from these people as some of the animals would have been stolen.</blockquote>
Stock theft is a serious offence in Zimbabwe and anyone found guilty may be imprisoned for 9 years.

Matabeleland Police Concerned Over Stock Theft and Illegal Beef Sales

Villagers in Nswazwi, Bulilima West, Matabeleland South have reportedly gone for 8 years without water after the engine that pumped water to their taps broke down.
The pump, which provided safe drinking water for the villagers, was taken for repairs by the Zimbabwe National Water Authority (ZINWA). It has not been returned.
A local businessman said that villagers are now sharing drinking water with animals from a river. He said:
<blockquote>We had our engine here, but when it broke down, it was taken by Zinwa and never returned. Right now, we are sharing water sources with animals.
As I speak, there is a donkey which is rotting in the dam and that’s the same water we are drinking. We appeal to the government to solve this water problem.</blockquote>
A local traditional leader, Headman Jetjeni, under whose jurisdiction the villagers fall disclosed that four of his villages were affected by water challenges. He said:
<blockquote>The other problem is that elephants also drink from the dam and it’s now fast running out of water.
When we reach August or September, it would be dry and we find it difficult to get water for our livestock and domestic use.</blockquote>
