Move On Your Own Before We Take Action: City Of Harare Warns Illegal Settlements In Eyestone, Crowborough

The Harare City Council has warned that it cannot allow illegal settlements in Crowborough, Churu and Eyestone Farms to go on. The council said that the people should move and threatened them with unspecified actions. In a statement the council said,

It would be unfair not to mention that some of the land invasions are ‘politically’ motivated with the leadership of the invasions falsely aligning their actions with political parties. We have done our research and established that no political party wants to tarnish their images by engaging in illegal activities when they can use the law to obtain residential land for the people. By this notice, we are calling on all people that invaded Crowborough, Churu and Eyestone Farms to move out on their own before we take action.

…Allowing people to stay on Crowborough Farm is a travesty of justice. The farm is used for wastewater treatment. This means any human settlement on that farm is a huge risk to the health of all Harare residents.
