On 10-2-1982 the Herald newspaper announced the introduction of the arms below. The arms show a book as a symbol for the education, as well as symbols for the industry, farming and agriculture. The crest is taken from the old arms. New in the arms are the heads of Josiah Tongogara and Mbuya Nehanda, two revolutionaries. How long these, really unheraldic, arms have been used I don't know.
