Nembudziya

Nembudziya lies in the wooded Gokwe country west of the Sanyati River. Its name is associated with a line of local headmen in a region where several chiefly families held authority over neighbouring communities. Chireya was remembered as a senior chief among them, with Nembudziya and others holding their own local positions. The plateau's woodland and river valleys form the setting for a history shaped by these local relationships and the people who cultivated the land.
