Residents in Cherima suburb have once again complained against the Marondera council management’s selfishness following the laying of a new road along the street where the local councillor resides.
The repaired road passes through councillor Dominic Matangira’s house along Mutamba street.
This comes as residents are complaining about the laying of a new tar along councillor Mubaiwa Dzvuke’s street in Nyameni.
Open Council Marondera visited the area and confirmed that the road was recently rehabilitated.
Memory Nyaguwe (48), a vendor criticised authorities for effecting development to their own benefit. Nyaguwe said:
We elected leaders to represent us and foster development for the benefit of all of us.
However, here we are.
Matangira lobbied for the rehabilitation of a road in Mutamba Street where he stays.
What about other roads that are in a bad state?
We have incompetent council management in Marondera. How can they let this happen?
Asked about this issue, Marondera Mayor Simbarashe Nyahuye each and every councillor has the power to determine any development needed in his or her ward.
Matangira, one of the longest-serving councillors in Marondera, and Dzvuke survived the axe after joining the Douglas Mwonzora led MDC-T party.
