Bulawayo Council Plans Crackdown On Open Air Churches

The Bulawayo City Council planning a clampdown on open-air churches across the city in response to complaints by residents of noise pollution.

Speaking at a full council meeting last week, Bulawayo deputy mayor Mlandu Ncube said:

The city is now dominated by flags of different churches. They are spreading cholera because they are using the bush as ablution facilities. I am saying let’s remove these churches from the city.

Ward 4 Councillor Silas Chigora said the problem should be dealt with once and for all. Chigora said:

We are shocked whether it’s worshipping or money-spinning activities, let’s write to these churches to say they should vacate those sites.

Let us (also) engage someone like a debt collector who will go around removing these people because I am tired of the complaints of these churches.

My community respects the environment, they respect trees, they respect rocks, they respect hills and mountains.

Let’s engage someone to round up these churches just like we did in George Silundika, let’s do that and deal with this problem once and for all.

Ward 27 councillor Alderman Siboniso Khumalo said the churches should apply for stands to construct places of worship.

Recently, Churches Council of Africa (CCA) founder and president Rocky Moyo said local authorities were demanding large amounts of money. | Business Times
