“The biggest land baron as far as land corruption is concerned is a man called Kenneth Raydon Sharpe who operates through Augur Investments. He excels through dubious agreements.

Especially the one with City of Harare on the construction of Harare Airport Road and the development called Sunshine in respect of which he undertook to provide development capital but he failed yet he got land.
