People in a Bulawayo ward are pretty happy with their local leadership lately. Since the new councilor and committee started last year, they have been getting actual work done. The development committee chair, Tshaha Nleya, says they are using ward funds to fix long-standing problems.
The big focus has been on digging trenches and improving drainage. For years, homes would flood whenever it rained heavily. Residents say that the issue is finally being addressed. A community member named Zwelitsha Moyo noted the new office is pushing hard to secure money and show results. Local Ambrose Sibindi believes the upgrades will protect houses during the coming rainy season.
