BBC NEWS | Monitoring | Media Reports | Mugabe's Anniversary Speech
President Mugabe said his government is determined to settle the issue of land reform in zimbabwe once and for all .
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/monitoring/media_reports/717964.stm

Extractions: In an address to the nation to mark the country's independence anniversary, Zimbabwe's President Mugabe said the issue of land reform was the "last colonial question". He said he was determined to settle it "once and for all". The following are excerpts from his speech, as broadcast on Zimbabwean radio and television: I remind you today that our independence followed over 90 years of oppressive settler colonial rule imposed on us in 1890 when the British occupied our country. Our independence followed years of bitter protracted struggle. Ask yourselves how many had to die for this great day to come...
BBC News | Zimbabwe | Land Battle Sets Black Against White
Redistribution of land in zimbabwe has been on the cards for nearly two decades, but some white landowners believe the government is exploiting it for political reasons.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/special_report/1998/12/98/zimbabwe/223290.stm

Extractions: By Africa Correspondent Jane Standley Some 18 years since victory in the war that turned Rhodesia into independent Zimbabwe, much awaited land reform has yet to be carried out. Redistributing land has been on the political agenda since independence, but Zimbabwe's current economic crisis, the worst ever, has fuelled even more hunger for land. Jane Standley reports from Harare on the struggle over land Most black farmers are struggling to grow enough to eat on tiny plots, while the huge commercial farms growing tobacco, Zimbabwe's largest export, are in the hands of white Zimbabweans, like Wayne Parham, whose family have been farming in the country for three generations. No-one in Zimbabwe is arguing about the need for land reform, even Mr Wayne supports land redistribution, but with a recent government notice that his land is going to be taken, insists that there must be proper compensation.

BBC News | AFRICA | Zimbabwe's Spokesman: Professor Jonathan Moyo
zimbabwe's information minister strongly defends his government's policies, but he has not always been in step with the president. 28 February 2001.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/1194553.stm

Extractions: By former Zimbabwe correspondent Grant Ferrett Few people in Zimbabwe, apart from President Robert Mugabe, evoke such strong emotions as Professor Jonathan Moyo. He is a former critic of the government who, in the space of 18 months, has been elevated to the position of information minister and the president's closest adviser. In that time he has succeeded in offending all sides. The letters pages of privately owned newspapers frequently include denunciations of Professor Moyo. One recently described him as "the most hated man in Zimbabwe". Conversion Professor Moyo's rise to one of the most influential positions in Zimbabwe has been breathtaking. As recently as May 1999 he was still writing newspaper articles that condemned President Mugabe in the strongest terms.

Top of the agenda for the Ministerial Action group, which includes British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook, has been discussing the situation in Zimbabwe. Stephen Baker reports. The Commonwealth's Ministerial Action group was set up to police standards of good government and human rights throughout the organisation's member countries. Tuesday's meeting of the foreign ministers of the eight nations currently serving on the committee was the first since the dramatic escalation of Zimbabwe's political crisis caused, in part, by President Robert Mugabe's failure to condemn the occupation of white-owned farms by war veterans. Speaking before the start of the meeting, British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook said he hoped the Commonwealth would be issuing a statement saying it shares Britain's concerns about the situation in the African country.

Extractions: afrol.com, 1 March - Zimbabwe's Chief Justice, Sir Anthony Gubbay, today defied government orders to step down when going to work as usual. He was given until midnight on Wednesday to leave his office, and the government threatens to remove him forcefully in what has become a dramatic "war" for the independence of the country's judiciary. Sir Anthony Gubbay has been accused of aligning with the white farmers and standing in the way of the Zimbabwean "land reform". Many of the country's top judges, such as Gubbay, are white. After heavy pressure from "war veterans" and the government, including threats to his personal security, the Chief Justice originally had agreed to resign from his post. He however changed his mind, deciding to resist the government's pressure, and to defend the Zimbabwean Constitution. Gubbay lately seems to have been under substantial pressure by Zimbabwean judges and lawyers not to give in to government threats.
