Chief Musara, born Boniface Musara yesterday dragged Chief
Chikwanda’s aide Moses Hwingiri for allegedly undermining his authority.
The Mirror heard that Hwingiri disrupted two funerals where
he blocked Chief Musara’s representatives from delivering the latter’s
speeches. Hwingwiri claimed that the area was not under Chief Musara hence
Musara should not speak at the funerals.
The matter is before Masvingo Magistrate Patience Madondo
and the State is represented by Ruvimbo Makoni.
The Mirror heard that villagers in the area are observing
chisi (sacred day) on two different days on Wednesday or Thursday depending on
which chief the villager pays allegiance to.
It is the State case that on May 23, 2021, Hwingwiri of
Magaisa Village under Chief Musara caused havoc at Muchechesi Village where he
attended a funeral.
The Mirror heard that Hwingwiri interrupted when it was the
village head’s turn to deliver speech arguing that the area fell under
Chikwanda and not Musara. He influenced mourners not to respect Musara’s
jurisdiction.
In the second count Hwingwiri was at a funeral at Dzani
village under Chief Musara. When it was Chief Musara’s turn to deliver his
speech, he interrupted Musara’s aide, Makomo Chirume from reading the speech
and ordered him to sit down.
Accused went to inform the mourners that the area falls
under Chikwanda.
The speech was not read. The case was reported leading to
the arrest of accused. Masvingo Mirror
