Govt disowns ‘King Munhumutapa’

GOVERNMENT has disowned Timothy Chiminya Mujuru who has proclaimed himself King Munhumutapa after the State failed to oppose his application to be crowned the heir to the throne in the High Court.

Mujuru claims he was reinstated as the paramount king by the High Court on September 30, 2022 under case number 398/22.

Since then, Mujuru has been going around claiming to be King Munhumutapa and in March this year installed heir apparent Julius Chimbi Chigegwe as Chief Chirumanzu.
