Moven Enock Mahachi (13 June 1948 – 26 May 2001) served as the Minister of Defence of the Republic of Zimbabwe.
[3] At the time Zimbabweans considered his death suspicious, especially as Mahachi died thirty days after another M.P., Border Gezi, was killed.
In a statement he said: Moven was an outsider in an exclusive club – the Committee of 26 – comprising politicians of Zezurus and Korekore origin.
This committee of looters have controlled the army, the police, the CIO and appear to think that they went to war for self enrichment.
To them Mahachi was an obstacle in their quest to amass wealth using the pretext of fighting a prolonged war to restore sovereignty in the DRC, just as they had done in Mozambique during the military campaign against Renamo.
