Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A group of serving and retired army Generals plotting the eviction of an estimated 300 Chegutu families to pave way for a proposed platinum project, has reportedly called an emergency meeting to sanitise the plan.<\/p>\n

The firm, which was reported to be co-owned by the Chinese and military personnel, is headed by one Major General Ncube and his colleagues, it has emerged.<\/p>\n

Representatives of the firm called for an emergency meeting Tuesday night, with headmen, farmer representative groups and Chegutu legislator, Webster Shamu, according to NewZimbabwe.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe Indigenous Women Farmers founder, Depinah Nkomo confirmed the meeting was held, before expressing anger over secrecy surrounding the attempt to evict occupants. Nkomo said:<\/p>\n

We were pained by the issue. All this time we were told it was a Chinese firm only till today we were told it belonged to an army general and his mates.<\/p>\n

They didn\u2019t want to tell people that because of self-pride. Due to pain, we called some reporters and the stories written thereafter reached all parts of the country and abroad, and that is when they called for an emergency meeting.<\/p>\n

We can honestly say the outcome of the meeting was favourable and what they told us today was different from what we were being told previously.<\/p>\n

Headman Almsdeeds Dambiranwa told NewZimbabwe.com that villagers at Hopewell farm would no longer be affected by the impending mining venture, which would only affect a nearby wildlife safari lodge.<\/p>\n
