Harare City Council has announced plans to connect at least 9,000 households in Harare South to a reliable water supply.
The initiative aims to reduce the risk of waterborne diseases and improve the overall health and wellbeing of residents in the area.
The council has identified Harare South as one of the most vulnerable areas in terms of water supply, with many residents relying on informal settlements and unregulated sources for their drinking water.
This has led to a significant risk of waterborne diseases, including cholera, which has been a major concern in the city in recent years.
“The council is committed to providing safe and reliable water to all residents in Harare South,” said the Mayor of Harare City Council, Jacob Mafume. “We recognize that access to clean water is a fundamental human right, and we are working tirelessly to ensure that all residents have access to this basic service.”
The council has also partnered with local organizations and NGOs to provide support and resources for the project.
The Zimbabwe National Water Authority (ZINWA) has also pledged its support for the initiative, providing technical expertise and resources.
