Zimbabwe and South Africa on Thursday, 14 March, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at addressing water scarcity in Musina.
The agreement focuses on water supply from Beitbridge—a town in Zimbabwe—to Musina, a neighbouring town in South Africa.
According to <a href="https://www.zimlive.com/zimbabwe-and-south-africa-sign-mou-on-treated-water-supply-to-musina/">ZimLive</a>, the MoU was formalised between Zimbabwe’s Minister of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, and Rural Development, Anxious Masuka, and South Africa’s Water and Sanitation Minister, Senzo Mchunu.
The MoU allows for the transfer of approximately 15 million cubic meters of treated water per day from the Beitbridge water treatment works in Zimbabwe to Musina in South Africa. This will be facilitated through a 20-kilometer pipeline.
Musina, with an estimated population of 132,000 residing in 192 villages, faces challenges due to limited water sources. Currently, the town relies on borehole water.
South Africa’s Department of Water and Sanitation stated that the deal would significantly augment the water supply in Musina.
The freshwater from Beitbridge WTW will help alleviate water shortages in the town.
The Beitbridge Water Treatment Plant can produce 35 million cubic meters per annum (96 Ml/day). However, this capacity is currently not fully utilized within Zimbabwe.
Zimbabwe, Botswana, Mozambique, and South Africa are all members of the Limpopo Watercourse Commission, an organization established to manage shared water resources among these four countries.
This collaborative effort aims to address water security challenges and enhance cooperation in managing vital water resources across borders.

Zimbabwe And South Africa Sign Water Supply Agreement

South Africa’s Deputy Minister of Health, Dr Sibongiseni Dhlomo on Monday, 15 January said two laboratory-confirmed cases of cholera in Limpopo were imported from Zimbabwe.
According to a statement published on the South African Government website yesterday, a 43-year-old male cholera patient from Zimbabwe tested positive and has since been discharged from Musina Hospital.
The other patient, a 27-year-old man, also from Zimbabwe, was still in isolation at Hellen Franz Hospital.
Dhlomo urged members of the public to be vigilant and maintain personal hygiene follwing the confirmation of the two cholera cases. Reads part of the statement:
<blockquote>
The Deputy Minister of Health, Dr Sibongiseni Dhlomo urges members of the public to be vigilant and maintain personal hygiene as the country records two laboratory-confirmed cases of cholera in Limpopo.
Both cases are imported from Zimbabwe.
The first case was confirmed in the Musina sub-district in Vhembe District. The 43-year-old male patient tested positive and has since been discharged from Musina Hospital.
The second case is a 27-year-old man, also from Zimbabwe who presented at Hellen Franz Hospital under Capricorn District Municipality, with a history of abdominal cramps, watery diarrhoea and vomiting that started on 11 January 2024.
The patient travelled to Zimbabwe on 9 December 2023 and returned to South Africa on 10 January 2024. His health condition is stable and still in isolation at the hospital.
His contacts were identified, and the local outbreak response team has been activated to conduct further investigations and provide health education to contacts.
The country remains on high alert for possible imported cholera cases from neighbouring Zimbabwe which is currently battling the outbreak of the disease which has so far claimed over 200 lives.
The department in collaboration with the Border Management Authority, has intensified health screening at the Beitbridge border post to mitigate against the imported cholera cases from Zimbabwe.
Deputy Minister Dhlomo thanks these suspected cholera patients for being honest with their travel history and fully cooperating with health officials and appeals to all those with a travel history to cholera outbreak areas to do the same to save lives and prevent further transmission to other people.
</blockquote>
Dhlomo appealed to travellers along N1 from Musina and other parts of the country to avoid using known or suspected contaminated surfaces, especially in public places.
He said members of the public should wash hands thoroughly with soap before handling food or after using the bathroom to prevent possible infection. Reads the statement:
<blockquote>
All people who experience cholera-like symptoms (stomach cramps, diarrhoea, and dehydration and vomiting), with or without a travel history to cholera endemic countries and areas, are also urged to present themselves to the nearest health facilities without delays. Never drink water from unsafe sources such as rivers, dams, or streams, unless boiled or disinfected first.

Two Cholera Cases Detected In Limpopo "Imported From Zimbabwe", Says SA Deputy Health Minister

President <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Emmerson_Mnangagwa/">Emmerson Mnangagwa</a> has said South Africa is much more than a neighbour as its “strong relationship” with Zimbabwe is based on “trust and cooperation.” He recently conducted a joint tour of the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Beitbridge/">Beitbridge</a> Border Post with his South African counterpart, Cyril Ramaphosa, to enhance their bilateral ties. The tour was proposed when they met at the United Nations General Assembly.
During the tour, they discussed upgrading border facilities and services to facilitate the movement of goods and people. The <a href="https://www.sundaymail.co.zw/well-harness-post-poll-goodwill-president">Sunday Mail</a> quotes the president as saying: 
<blockquote>
The purpose of that joint tour was to ensure we lay the infrastructural basis for seamless port operations to promote efficient movement of people, goods and services. This critical goal rides on our excellent historical and bilateral relations, and on our ever strengthening trade and investment ties.
South Africa is much more than a neighbour; it is Zimbabwe’s largest trading partner, numerous people-to-people social and cultural affinities quite apart.
</blockquote>
He added that Zimbabwe and South Africa have a shared history and cultural ties, which have strengthened their bond. Mnangagwa said Beitbridge Border Post is not just a port but a symbol of their bilateral relations, rooted in their common desire for independence and economic growth.
South Africa plans to revamp and upgrade its border facilities at the Musina Border, which is the busiest port in Africa. Both countries aim to establish a one-stop border post to improve the efficiency and integration of port services.

President Mnangagwa Says South Africa Is Much More Than A Neighbour

South Africa’s Members of the Beitbridge Task Team, who guard the border post between South Africa and Zimbabwe, arrested two suspects with explosives during a stop and search along the N1 between Musina and Beitbridge on Friday.
Provincial police spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Malesela Ledwaba, said members of the Beitbridge Task Team the duo was in a blue Toyota Corolla sedan. <a href="https://www.iol.co.za/mercury/news/saps-nab-two-suspects-with-more-than-240-explosives-during-a-stop-and-search-operation-on-the-n1-near-beitbridge-57c0e6f4-9b89-40a5-b43f-44705608a3f5">IOL</a> cites him as saying:
<blockquote>
Upon searching the vehicle, the members found four bags in the boot of the car containing two hundred and forty seven (247) blasting cartridges, 1 250 connector capped fuses and seven reels of detonating cords.
</blockquote>
Ledwaba said the two suspects were immediately apprehended on the spot while the explosives, as well as the motor vehicle, were confiscated.
In a separate incident last month, IOL reported that a 30-year-old South African man appeared before the Beitbridge Magistrate’s Court in Zimbabwe after he was arrested for allegedly smuggling a pistol and 50 rounds of live ammunition into the neighbouring country.
Meanwhile, earlier this year, it was reported that three foreign nationals, one woman and two men, were arrested by the police at the Beitbridge border post for allegedly being in possession of commercial explosives.
The suspects were arrested as they crossed into South Africa from Zimbabwe.

South Africa: Zimbabwean Journalist Robbed In Musina

Four (4) female Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) employees were reportedly abducted and held for ransom in Musina, South Africa, on Monday night.
The victims, who work at the Beitbridge border post, had entered South Africa at around 3 PM to do some shopping and were all in ZIMRA uniforms.
<a href="https://www.zimlive.com/2022/09/4-zimra-officers-kidnapped-held-for-ransom-in-south-africa/">ZimLive</a> reported a source as saying the four we kidnapped at gunpoint and robbed of all their possessions before ransom demands were made. Said the source:
<blockquote>
They were all in ZIMRA uniform. The kidnappers must have known who their targets were.
The kidnappers demanded R10 000 to free them, but they didn’t have the money on them.
The ZIMRA officers were made to contact their colleagues at the border and one of them had an FNB account, and a transfer was effected.
… The kidnappers were apparently Zimbabwean because they spoke Shona.
</blockquote>
The ZIMRA officers were reportedly released at around 12 AM on Tuesday.
Limpopo Police spokesperson Brigadier Motlafela Mojapelo had not confirmed the incident on Tuesday while a ZIMRA spokesman said they were still gathering details.

Four ZIMRA Officials Kidnapped, Held For Ransom In SA By "Zimbabweans"

South Africa’s Home Affairs Department has responded to reports made on 15 September that the department was blocking some Zimbabweans who were intending to pass through the Beitbridge border post to Zimbabwe.
<a href="https://www.news24.com/news24/southafrica/news/zimbabweans-trying-to-leave-sa-not-being-turned-back-home-affairs-explains-20220919">News24</a> reported that the new Border Management Authority guards in Musina, Limpopo were blocking the travellers. Reads the statement issued by the department in response to the reports:
<blockquote>
Border Guards are doing access control duties at the Beitbridge Border Post and they direct the Zimbabweans wanting to go back to their home country to the relevant queues so that they can be documented in accordance with the Immigration Act. This means that they need to be fingerprinted and have their demographic details taken.
However, there are people who have refused to be documented on their departure. They believe that now that they are going back home, nobody needs to ask them any questions at our border.
Nobody will be allowed to just waltz through our border to and fro without being documented. There are no exceptions in this regard, whether you go through a land port, sea port or an airport. This is regardless of your nationality.
There is no way South Africa will refuse anybody from going back home. But similarly, South Africa can’t just allow anybody to move in and out of the country without it being recorded anywhere.

South Africa Speaks On Blocking Some Zimbabweans Intending To Return Home

Shelters for displaced foreign nationals in and around Musina, in South Africa’s Limpopo Province, say they are overwhelmed with requests to take in stranded Zimbabweans.
A significant number of Zimbabweans have been crossing the border into South Africa illegally but cannot return home in the wake of the hard lockdown and are now in need of shelter in the neighbouring country.
A 16-year-old girl who has been a resident at the MG Matsaung Centre located at the Uniting Reformed Church in Nancefield township in Musina, for 6 years, said she doesn’t want to return to Zimbabwe.
Now in Grade 8, the girl walked into South Africa at the age of 10 from Zimbabwe with a group of other minors in search for greener pastures. She said:
<blockquote>I don’t wish like to go to Zimbabwe, I mean I would go but then I feel at home here. I don’t miss anything. Like since I was a child all I wanted was to go to school but then here I’m going to school, I have nothing to worry about.
… When I grow up I want to be an actress and when I will be an actress, my first earnings I will donate it here to other children because I know that other children the same age as me will be here too so I want to donate them something to make them feel at home like I did.</blockquote>
Meanwhile, Jacob Matakanye from the centre says they have been inundated with requests to take in kids that have been abandoned in recent weeks but cannot take more due to lack of funding. He said:
<blockquote>We have got a lot of pressure, people request our intervention so that we can take care of kids to come and stay here, but we have got a problem that at present we have a problem with funds and we are afraid if take more children without resources. Again this will cause more problem of not being able to feed them or take care of them.</blockquote>
Shelters for older people have also been turning away stranded foreign nationals.
South Africa is home to millions of Zimbabweans who have escaped the country’s economic challenges caused by decades of massive corruption and mismanagement.

Shelters In Musina Inundated By Stranded Zimbabweans

South Africa’s business community in Musina, Limpopo Province has bemoaned the effects of the coronavirus induced lockdown which has confined its Zimbabwean customers on the other side of the border.
Rana Masut who owns a shop in the small town of Musina that, in the past three months, his income had dropped from roughly R6 000 per day to about R1 000 on a good day, due to the closure of international borders as a result of Covid-19. He added:
<blockquote>We are struggling because business is bad right now because of the coronavirus. Most of our customers from Zimbabwe are not able to come and buy anymore, so we lose half of the customers.</blockquote>
Another businessman, Hermanus Schoeman, who owns the oldest security business in the town and is also the owner and founder of Limpopo Safaris said he had lost bookings worth R20 million from international tourists who want to come and hunt game.
Zimbabwe and South Africa closed the Beitbridge Border as a way to stop the spread of the coronavirus with both President Mnangagwa and Ramaphosa, Zimbabwe and South Africa respectively saying public lives and safety was of paramount significance compared to the economy.
The neighbouring countries are slowly and carefully relaxing lockdown regulations but it is not known when they are going to open the borders and as the economic and humanitarian crisis in the two countries is worsening, some have resorted to smuggling goods through undesignated entry points to fend for their families and save their ailing businesses.
