Marondera Municipality Blames ZINWA For Water Shortages

Marondera Municipality Councillors want the Zimbabwe National Water Authority (ZINWA) to cede control of water infrastructure. ZINWA is being accused of causing water shortages that have been experienced in Marondera in the past few weeks.
Zinwa is a parastatal formed in 2000 whose mandate is to manage water for the State and to ensure sustainable development and equitable distribution of the country’s water resources to all Zimbabweans at an affordable price. ZINWA has attributed the water shortages in Mrondera to a faulty circuit breaker at the pump station. However, Ward 10 councillor Jimmy Jalifu has disputed that. He said

After the town had gone dry, I teamed up with other councillors and visited Wenimbi Dam, where we were told that the circuit breaker had developed a fault and that there was need for a new one. After investigations we later established that there was no fault at all. I think this is sabotage by some officials who want to discredit the newly-elected MDC council.
