Zimbabweans stranded in Limpopo urge their govt to fund repatriation
They also appeal to the Zim govt to pay for transport to take their belongings home.
Recent reports indicate that numerous Zimbabwean nationals remain stranded outside Mankweng Police Station in Limpopo, South Africa. These individuals have expressed a desperate need for assistance from their home government to transport them back to Zimbabwe. The situation has escalated as some Zimbabweans who were previously repatriated in July are still in need of transport for their remaining goods and luggage.
Herbert Masimba, one of the stranded individuals, has made a public appeal to the Zimbabwean government. He has urged the government to seek out willing truck drivers to transport the goods from their current location to Zimbabwe. Once the goods have been delivered, Masimba insists that the government must pay the truckers and provide a contractual agreement ensuring payment once the work is completed. This request is a critical need for these stranded Zimbabweans.
The government has promised that buses will continue to arrive for the repatriation of Zimbabwean nationals. However, Masimba and others are compiling a list of those who wish to return home. This growing concern has put pressure on the Zimbabwean government to address the situation promptly and ensure the safe return of its citizens.
