Bulawayo fears cholera outbreak
Nqobani Ndlovu ·
BULAWAYO residents are wary of a cholera or typhoid outbreak in the city after the local authority indefinitely shutdown water supplies to the entire city on Tuesday without notice.
The indefinite shutdown comes after the council, also without notice, on July 1 cut off water supplies to pave way for a major refurbishment on the Criterion water treatment plant.
On Tuesday, the Bulawayo city council (BCC) said it had failed to complete the refurbishment works which necessitated the indefinite shutdown of water supplies.
