Harare water currently unsafe to drink, Mayor Manyenyeni
The Mayor of Harare, Bernard Manyenyeni, has warned that Harare water is not safe to drink. According to the mayor, the water is currently not being treated adequately and residents of the capital city should drink it at their own risk.
The mayor was addressing a townhouse meeting in the city after pressure from a #FixOurWater Twitter campaign.
The campaign was started by activist and Member of Parliament candidate for 2018 elections, Fadzayi Mahere. As part of the hashtag campaign, Twitter users in Harare posted pictures of dirty water coming out of their taps.
Said Manyenyeni at the meeting:
Our claims that the water is chemically safe to drink will not hold if the residents cannot stand the sight of frothing or foaming, coloured water.
