The escapees, Tafara Zangarai, aged 30, and 35-year-old Ndalamo Nemakhavhani, were being held for separate cases of robbery in the area.
Mashaba says that a manhunt has been launched.
Police are urging members of the public with information about the whereabouts of the escapees to contact the nearest police station or crime stop number.
