Verdict: much of the land in zimbabwe, according to the country's laws, is vested in the state and the president who can have a final say on use and utilisation. the government is empowered to gazette land for a special purpose or any other use it deems fit or necessary. legal experts however say there is a need to reform laws like the communal land act and the mines and minerals act to ensure rights of people facing eviction from land are fully protected as enshrined in section 71 of the constitution.
