Harare Mayor Jacob Mafume just roasted residents for treating the city like a giant trash can. He lectured everyone at Town House about how the filth in the Central Business District and suburbs is entirely their fault. The official questioned why people walk around clutching garbage instead of leaving it at home or work where it belongs.

Mafume basically asked why anyone needs to carry maize cobs or groundnuts while strolling down the street. He thinks it makes zero sense for individuals to exit a house or car while holding waste. The politician argued that society has a fundamental issue because locals assume they possess the right to drop junk wherever they please.

He rejected the idea of placing bins on every corner since that apparently desecrates the city's vibe. The mayor insisted that adults should learn better manners instead of eating while walking or riding public transport. He wants everyone to sit down to eat and dispose of leftovers properly before moving again.

The council plans to slap heavy fines on offenders to force better hygiene habits immediately. Mafume pointed out that places like Singapore charge massive amounts for spitting or littering. He promised that criminal offenses and expensive tickets would fix this mess since light punishments clearly failed to stop the bad behavior.
