.Harare - President Emmerson Mnangagwa on Saturday assured Zimbabwe's white farmers that their land will not be taken, calling on them to work together with the government ahead of landmark elections on July 30.

Under his predecessor Robert Mugabe, white farmers were evicted in favour of landless black people from 2000 by a controversial policy that wrecked agriculture and triggered an economic collapse.

But less than two weeks to go before Zimbabwe's first elections since Mugabe's ouster, Mnangagwa moved to quash any fears the practice would be repeated.

It's all BS, few years down the line and the tune will change. You build it up, natives see it and get jealous, political schit starts again about the land and the gov takes it back again to appeal to the populace. These white farmers are dumb as fsck if they think things are secure in africa.

Those african countries that took in white farmers from zim, sa etc already have issues with the locals, not that the locals ever made productive use of the land.
