Harare Provincial Development Coordinator (PDC), Tafadzwa Muguti, said that NGOs and Trusts that have failed to comply with a directive to present their credentials to his office by 30 June 2021 will be forced to cease operations until they comply.
Last month Muguti directed all Non-governmental organisations (NGOs), Private Voluntary organisations (PVOs), Trusts and Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) operating in the province to submit their work plans for the year 2021 to his office as they would be reporting to him.
