Gokwe Nembudziya farmers have resorted to protect their cotton produce using so called “traditional methods” in which they use baboons as security guards following several thefts of their cotton bales by unscrupulous guards.
This came to light last week, after one of the security guards who was manning the cotton bales at Chinyenhyetu Township, met the traditional security partners, two baboons and a huge brown cat.
Simon Nderunderu of Kuwirirana village in Gokwe came face to face with two male baboons and a big brown cat sitting on top of a Chireya farmer’s cotton bales, and tried to scare them, but was in turn threatened by the creatures, before he took to his heals for assistance from the other guards who were on duty at the nearby shops.
The other two Rickson Machinga and Norman Ndoro advised Nderunderu to wait for the cotton owners to come, since most of Gokwe farmers have resorted to traditional ways of protecting their hard earned cotton produce.
“I am still in shock as I can still see the creatures in my eyes. I have asked my bosses to transfer me to another cotton depot, but they said I must resign if I am scared of Gokwe, and look for employment elsewhere,” said Nderunderu .
The two guards, who came to Simon’s rescue Machinga and Ndoro refused to be pictured for fear of victimisation from their employers and villagers, but confirmed the ordeal to ZimEye.com.
“We suspect our friend wanted to steal some of the cotton and came face to face with the creatures. In Gokwe, it is now common that farmers use their traditional means to protect their harvests, like what we saw at the cotton depot.
This time it’s no longer easy to reap what you did not sow in Gokwe, as most of the people are witches and can do everything possible to protect their wares from thieves,” said Machinga.
The owner of the cotton bales, who identified himself as Robson Kazenge confirmed the ownership of the creatures, but refused to shed more light on how he work with them.
“Sorry young man, it’s my secret that I will not reveal to you, because you will publish it and I will lose my wealth. What will you do to help me when I lose my strength? Iwe just know that these are my creatures that’s all,” said Kazenge before ordering this journalist to leave him in peace.
Gokwe Nembudziya has been awash with juju, as two weeks ago, a young girl rose from the dead before burial and also three old women confessed to have human flesh in their huts, for relish.
Headman Nembudziya’s representative Chekayi Chingwe confirmed the presence of the creatures and warned villagers against stealing from anyone’s fields, as death will befall them.
“We strongly warn thieves not to risk their lives here in Nembudziya, as we tried in vain to dialogue with juju community to resolve their issues amicably with their victims. Many people are dying as a result of theft from villages, especially from swelling stomachs and headaches,” he said.

  1. Taura hako there need to be a task force that investigate these things in america and other developed countries they have teams that take interest In such unnatural happenings..the( x files) they cud be more to it than meet the eye..imagine if we can use lightining to strike the enemy as military weapon..

  2. Hmn where did that come from CEDRICK. No tribe or colour has been mentioned here. What an attitude. I’d rather reserve comments for such people.

  3. And yet our security chefs do not employ such articulate guys like Kazenge. We could easily rule the world. To me this looks like a latent force that could be used for anythingm so we already have the basics? Lets use our strengths not theirs. I think we all agree bombs are evil and indiscriminate. So the question of evil is out here? readers help!
