Mr Walter Mzembi, Zimbabwean Tourism Minister on Tuesday, told BBC that Zimbabwe plans to build a "Disneyland in Africa" at the world famous Victoria Falls to boost tourism.

Zimbabwe is not leveraging the Victoria Falls enough, Mr Mzembi told the BBC, describing it as a "sleeping giant".

"It's a wake-up call for us...we must build a new tourism facility with an impact," he said.

"We think it should be modelled along the size and the kind of vision that is on Disneyland, including hotels, entertainment parks, restaurants, conferencing facilities. This is the vision and we need people who can run with it."

The government would spend more than $300m (£193m) on the theme park, said Tourist Minister Walter Mzembi.
