MWENEZI – Elliot
Jawanda, who was appointed the new substantive Chief Mawarire at the end of
last year, had his installation ceremony finally held on March 15
after the occasion was postponed more than twice last year.
The
installation ceremony was held at Mawarire Primary School, Ward 4, under Chief
Mawarire.
In
attendance was the Minister of State for Masvingo Provincial Affairs, Ezra
Chadzamira, National Council of Chiefs president Chief Fortune Charumbira, legislators,
trational leaders and government employees.
Jawanda
took over the chieftainship from Amon Vengo who has been acting chief since the
death of his father who was then substantive chief until his death.
Speaking
to TellZim News during the appointment of Jawanda as acting chief, the District
Administrator (DA) Rosemary Chingwe said there were four families with a stake
in the Mawarire chieftainship.
She
said unlike in many cases elsewhere, there was consensus on the new chief and
the families had avoided leadership wrangles.
