By A Correspondent- The government has failed to provide shelter to more than 300 Chimanimani families after they were in 2017 displaced by Cyclone Idai.
The victims are still living in temporary camps despite promises by the government to build houses for them.
Vice President Constantino Chiwenga was in Chimanimani, yesterday where as usual he promised to provide housing to the desperate villagers.
“I am here wearing two hats, one I am representing my leader and leader of our country President Mnangagwa who would want to know the progress we have made. I am here also as Minister of Health (and Child Care). I want to acquaint myself with the state of health care provision, said Chiwenga.
But at the core of it all, is to fix the terrible experience that befell us when we were struck by Cyclone Idai. I am advised that the road that connects Kopa and Jopa is in a very bad state. We want to see to it that this road is fixed before the onset of rains,” Chiwenga made the usual Zanu PF empty promises.
