A Zimbabwean white farmer Richard Seager is reportedly seeking President Emmerson Mnangwagwa government to assist him get back his 609 hectare farm that was seized from him in 2007 by an indigenous farmer.

Seager claimed in a letter to Mashonaland East Provincial Minister of State David Musabayana and Lands minister Perrance Shiri that his farm in Wedza, was "fraudulently and violently" taken away from him. 

He said having heard the new government's mandate and witnessing the reinstatement of several white farmers, this prompted him to make this application seeing how fair, just and committed the government is with this exercise.

Seager's move came a few weeks after another white Zimbabwean farmer Robert Smart got his Lesbury farm about 200km East of the capital Harare back.Smart was evicted from his farm by gun-wielding police and a mob associated wit the ruling Zani-PF party in June 2017.
