Zimbabwe continues its monthly clean-up tradition eight years after it started. Today, four major groups—the Anti-Corruption Commission, Media Commission, Gender Commission, and Human Rights Commission—picked up trash together across Harare. The President launched this program on December 5, 2018, making every first Friday clean-up day nationwide.
Michael Reza leads the Anti-Corruption Commission and spoke during the event about cleanliness. He said keeping things clean connects to godliness and urged people to maintain neat workplaces and public spaces. The Media Commission boss, Professor Ruby Magosvongwe, added her thoughts about following the President's call. She hoped everyone had already cleaned their offices and work areas.
The cleaning teams began their work at a gas station on Sam Nujoma Street. They moved through the city, picking up litter and removing trash from public spaces. Their efforts continued along Herbert Chitepo Avenue, where they focused on the area around Harare Gardens. The group also cleaned the space surrounding the Anti-Corruption Commission headquarters.
These monthly clean-ups happen all across Zimbabwe as part of a national commitment to cleaner cities. Regular citizens join government workers on these days to improve their neighborhoods. The practice has become part of Zimbabwean culture since the presidential announcement. Many communities report better living conditions because of these consistent efforts.
