Beitbridge municipality firefighters in poor show

BEITBRIDGE Municipality firefighters put up an appalling show at a house fire incident in the border town yesterday.

Despite having taken delivery of state-of-the-art fire tenders sourced by the government from Belarus, the firemen’s failure to operate the modern machinery stole the show amid revelations that only one elderly firefighter had been trained.

The trained firefighter is said to be selfish with his knowledge and even the keys of the vehicle which only came to the scene after the town treasurer Anymore Mbedzi intervened.
