| illegal dump site in Bulawayo(www.image.guardian.co) |
Surprisingly, litter is always there everyday and everywhere but the collection is once a month and this is likely to cause health problems such as cholera.
Clearly the City Council has to do something to ensure the collection of refuse everyday to get rid of rubbish.
The Environmental Management Agency (EMA) also expressed concern over the raNDOM Garbage disposal in Bulawayo by residents saying it was causing a serious threat to human health.
According to the Standard newspaper, refuse collection stopped in 2008 when there was an economic crisis and this was because of the government's failure to approve the council's supplementary budgets(www.thestandard.co.zw).
At least a private firm will improve the collection of refuse since the City Council has proved to be unreliable.
