Oldest Village In Chivi
Despite being one of the oldest villages in the district, Gongwa is facing extinction from the massive spread of the growth point. Established in the early 1960s, the villagers witnessed the first and second Chimurenga (war against the white settlers). Starting from the Western hills the village stretches more than 20 hectares to the East.
Half of the village has been cut to provide the land for the growth point. In 2000 most of the villagers were moved to various places after the land reform program provided land for them, however, the conflict between the remaining villagers and the District Council was raised as the council did not have enough funds for the relocation of the villagers. The school was built by some Mujibhas to provide education to their children.
