'''Matibi''' is a former native reserve, now known as a communal land, in Southern [[Zimbabwe]]. It is found in the northern section of [[Mwenezi (District)]], north east of [[Manyuchi Dam]] and the mighty Mwenezi River; bordered by Belingwe communals lands to the north and [[Maranda, Zimbabwe|Maranda]] communal lands to the south. It is home to [[Neshuro]], [[Sarahura]] business centers and the famous school Chegato.

It is divided into Matibi 1 and 2. The population in these communal reserves were originally moved from their ancestral lands south of the river to create large cattle and game ranches of which [[Nuanetsi Ranch]] is the largest. During the land invasions of 2000 in [[Zimbabwe]], people from the communal lands of Matibi and nearby Maranda invaded most of the ranches, supposedly reclaiming their former ancestral land.<ref>Godhi Vhocho, {{doi|10.1177/1469605305057586}}
