Matabeleland South Province is pushing several major development projects focused on agriculture, water, and infrastructure. Key initiatives include the Tuli Manyange Dam for irrigation and water supply, the Antelope Arda Maphisa Irrigation Scheme in Matobo District, and the unique Makorokoro Village Business Unit in Mangwe District. Provincial Minister Albert Nguluvhe said these efforts are part of national development strategies, using both government and private partnerships to create jobs and build local supply chains.
The Garanyemba Drought Mitigation Centre in Gwanda District serves as a pilot project for rural climate resilience, featuring solar-powered boreholes, nutrition gardens, and livestock facilities fed by a refurbished dam. This model is planned for expansion to other rural areas nationwide. Other significant developments highlighted include the modernized Beitbridge Border Post, the ongoing Presidential Borehole Drilling Programme, and the Gwanda Lithium Mine. New justice infrastructure is also underway, with a forthcoming court complex set to house a High Court, allowing serious legal cases to be handled locally for faster resolutions.
