Ten refugees have arrived here to establish a new settlement in the Matabeleland, southwest of Selukwe. Five more are expected within the next few weeks. Work has been started on four farms, with cotton, maize, soya and citrus fruits among the crops. The land has been leased from the Bechuanaland Exploitation Company.
