learnt that the Ministry of Lands is misinformed about the land that can be distributed at Rivers Farm. According to their map the total arable land is 200 hectares. However on the ground there is only 8 hectares of land for crop production, the rest is a mountain range. He also highlighted that the land that was allocated to the families from Arnold Farm was their grazing land such that it was an inconvenience to them. Only 5 families were resettled at Nyandirwe farm and each family was allocated six (6) hectares of land. These were granted offer letters and were better placed in terms of security of tenure. Rivers and Nyandirwe farms where people were resettled had been largely used for animal husbandry as the land is unsuitable for crop production. The land is sandy and arid and this will make it impossible for the resettled people to resort back to normal livelihoods without the assistance of the government. Even though the land at Lazy farm is fertile, some of the resettled villagers complained that the land was waterlogged and was prone to flooding. 6.4.3 The Right to Health Services, Including Maternal Services and Immunizations The Constitution in Section 76 provides for the right to have access to basic health care services including reproductive health care services. The nearest clinic to both Lazy and Nyandirwe farm is called Ceaser Clinic and it is more than fifteen (15) kilometres away from the settlements. Due to the bad dusty roads the transport network is bad, which hampers access to the clinic. This has made it difficult for the disabled, the aged, the sick and for parents to actively take part in immunizations of their children due to the limited mobility to access the clinic. 6.4.4 The Right to Education When the evictions were carried out there was no consideration for the right of the affected children to education. At the time of the visit there was 1 (one) primary school and one secondary school. The primary school Hawk Ridge was said to be about five (5) kilometres away which is quite a long distance considering the ages of the primary school going children. The nearest secondary school Ceaser was said to be far from the resettlements such that it was not possible for the children to walk Page 12 of 22
