Bulawayo Mayor Addresses Water Crisis

Bulawayo Mayor David Coltart takes urgent steps to bring the uMzingwane Dam water crisis directly to President Emmerson Mnangagwa. The Bulawayo City Council specifically directed Coltart to engage the President promptly. This engagement aims to address the destructive activities of illegal Chinese gold miners operating in the region. These operations are severely destroying the city's vital water sources and causing crippling shedding across the metropolitan area. The worsening water crisis, exacerbated by illegal mining, has a severe impact on public health and daily life in the city. Without immediate presidential intervention, a humanitarian crisis could emerge for Bulawayo residents if not addressed promptly.
