we said that the new constitution should permit government to expropriate land if it was not being properly used. The British said ‘fine’, so long as we paid the full market price. But we knew that vast acreage were lying idle and therefore without a market price in areas formerly reserved for white ownership. To buy areas adequate for resettling the many land-hungry African farmers, who had been confined to the former tribal trust land, would be beyond the financial ability of the new state (Nkomo, 1984: 195-6).
