The preserved forest just along Chinangwa village was highly destroyed by the surrounding community. The devastation was mainly encouraged to lack of firewood for and timbers mainly for income.
The leased land owner came in the morning at 7 am. He found an oxcart full of firewood from the forest. The young driver escaped and left the oxcart. The two police officers with the forest owner chased one of the person whom they found cutting the tree inside the forest. They arrested him while numerous of them fled out of the forest.
The arrest of the man has threatened many of the people who went for trees for income. It was very pathetic to see the beautiful and admirable forest being devastated without any control. The devastated forest shall take almost thirty years to be as it was before which is very expensive.
