A FORMER Cabinet Minister and CCC Senator, Gabuza Joel Gabbuza, is battling for his life at Mpilo Central Hospital after he was savagely stabbed in a suspected adultery-fuelled attack that has stunned the usually quiet Binga District.
The blood-curdling drama occurred early Friday morning at Siamakwa Village in Tinde, Ward 18.
The ex-Minister allegedly spent the night at a woman’s homestead and paid a heavy price for it.
Sources say Gabbuza, once the Minister of Water Resources and Development during the Government of National Unity era, was ambushed by two knife-wielding men who accused him of sleeping with one of their estranged wives. The former legislator was left bleeding and barely conscious, with multiple deep stab wounds to the head and hands.
Gruesome pictures of his alleged injuries are circulating on social media.
“He was attacked with knives in a fit of rage. It was brutal. They were aiming for the head,” said a source close to the investigation.
The motive is a suspected love triangle gone horribly wrong.
Gabbuza, who had reportedly given the woman a lift earlier, decided to sleep over at her home. That decision almost cost him his life.
The two suspects stormed the homestead in the dead of night, confronted Gabbuza, and launched the vicious assault. After the attack, they vanished into the night, leaving the former senator clinging to life in a pool of blood.
A police report was made at Kamativi Police Station, but the suspects are still on the run.
“He was first rushed to Hwange Colliery Hospital where doctors fought to stabilise him. Due to the extent of his injuries, he was airlifted to Bulawayo for urgent specialised treatment,” said another source.
Police national spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the incident, saying investigations are in full swing.
Gabbuza is a prominent figure in Zimbabwean politics, having served under the late MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai and later as a CCC Senator for Binga. His stabbing has sparked concern and speculation in political circles, with many asking: Was it an act of jealousy, revenge, or both?
His condition remains critical.
The village is buzzing. The political world is watching. And the search is on for the men who turned a suspected love stopover into a near-death nightmare.
