Raw sewage at my doorstep

For the past eight months, Mzilikazi and Makokoba have been simmering with raw sewage. Burst sewer pipes are the order of the day. Can the Bulawayo city council and other relevant authorities at least do something about this?

In April 2009, Lobengula primary school had to suspend lessons on several days due to the sewer burst within the school premises and the immediate environs of the school. The situation is ticking health time bomb, and may all those who are responsible take quick and immediate action to remedy the situation.

The situation is graver in Makokoba surbub, along the Mpilo road, close to Mazayi river brigde which is adjacent to Lobengula primary school. ‘G’ and ‘F’ square residents in Mzilikazi can no longer enjoy their meals, of course, they cannot with the stench smell from the burst sewer manholes overflowing with human raw waste.
