Message: [QUOTE="Shamiso, post: 83689, member: 160"] City workers are furious over unpaid wages while officials splurge on travel. Municipal employees in Chitungwiza have not received salaries for several months, accusing council leadership of misplacing priorities. Workers sent a letter demanding payment before any participation in seminars, questioning how they can pay school fees or rent. The municipality is currently holding a policy review workshop in another city, allocating funds for travel and accommodations. Acting town clerk Japson Nemuseso reportedly ordered worker representatives to return allowances deposited for the workshop. Council spokesperson Tafadzwa Kachiko stated salary payments have commenced, and workshops aim to strengthen governance. Management claims these events ultimately benefit staff and residents despite the outstanding arrears. Employees argue that such gatherings have historically failed to produce meaningful results for their plight. [/QUOTE]
