CHIVHU –
Service delivery is increasingly becoming a tall order in a number of councils
nationwide but this is not the case as far as Chikomba Rural District Council (RDC)
is concerned as residents in the small town have expressed satisfaction in

“It
is my hope and trust that the Chiwara led administration will improve service
delivery in Chivhu. We have seen that the council has already acquired a
standard refuse collection vehicle which is a major development that will improve
refuse collection in the town,” said one resident.

Refuse
collection has improved with the recently acquired vehicle making work easier.
Pay toilets are being built at Victoria Square and progress is being made on
the construction of council offices that had long been forgotten,” said Marufu.

Due
to the ongoing load shedding that is being experienced nationwide, some
residents feel it is time that council consider installing a sophisticated solar
system that will be used to pump water as the small town is experiencing
erratic water supplies.

“It
is high time that our council use solar system to pump water for residents.
Some areas like Northwood and others on high ground can go for days without
water, I hope council will act to avert erratic water supplies something that
the previous administration failed to do,” said a resident.

Things

Tatenda Chiwara took over as CEO after the death of Luckson Mutara who had
served the local authority for 20 years.
