zimbabwe: the dongo list

The Dongo List was given by the government, from its own records, in answer to a Parliamentary Question by Margaret Dongo, who was one of only three opposition MP’s in the last Parliament. She lost her seat in the June elections. The list shows some of the farms bought by the government from commercial farmers on a willing buyer, willing seller basis, and gives some indication of how agricultural land intended for resettlement by peasant farmers has instead been allocated to government and Party supporters.
