Gweru goes digital

GWERU City Council has launched a digital platform called G-City accessible through smartphones in an effort to improve engagement with residents and improve service delivery during the COVID-19 era.

The mobile platform was established by the Gweru Residents Forum (GRF) in conjunction with council.

GRF director Charles Mazorodze told Southern Eye that they got funding from the German Development Co-operation (GIZ) for the creation of the mobile application, which allows for engagement with council on numerous services, including enquiries on bills, payments made, and reporting errant council employees.
