“Mbinga” Mambo Ndini’s Partners-in-Crime Arrested!

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has managed to apprehend the cohorts of the infamous socialite-turned-fugitive, Andy Baleni, widely recognized as Mambo Ndini.

Last month, Mambo Ndini cleverly evaded capture after deceiving unsuspecting individuals in a cunning scam that netted him a staggering $300,000. He and his partners in crime craftily swindled over 70 hardworking individuals, operating a fraudulent cement scheme under the guise of their company, Koffie and King Hardware. Their deceitful operation was located at 10 Mbuya Nehanda Street in Harare.

Mambo Ndini’s company advertised heavily on social media and local radio stations, enticing people with special offers on cement. As a result, numerous individuals responded and paid varying amounts with the expectation of receiving their cement after a week.
