City Of Harare Told How To Defeat Cholera

The Sunshine City council was told the only way to defeat Cholera an ancient disease that ravaged the capital just after elections last year is to build another Dam to supply Harare residents. This comes at a time where the city fathers are lamenting that Harare Water is expensive to treat since it needs a lot of chemicals because it’s too dirty.

This was said by Higher Life Foundation secretariat for Cholera who spoke to the Daily News at the National Action Committee (Nac) for Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (Wash) workshop on the development of a national cholera elimination strategy who said:

For Harare, our primary water source is Chivero. Chivero receives dirty water from rivers. Sewers are pouring back into Chivero.

That water is very dirty and it needs more chemicals, about 89, for proper treatment. Because the water is dirty, it’s like almost taking water from a sewage tank and trying to treat it.

If you go and get water from a clean source you need fewer chemicals. We now need a clean water source that will not need as many chemicals

The City Fathers have been having problems supplying all the residents in their jurisdiction constantly citing a number of reasons including forex shortages. A few weeks ago the council urged the government to declare the water crisis a national disaster so that plans to mobilise resources to eliminate the problem may begin. The govt has remained mum on that.
