NSSA, project manager squabble stalls hotel operations

OPERATIONS at the National Social Security Authority (NSSA)-owned Beitbridge Hotel are likely to stall as the authority and Daniel Mandishona, the architect and project manager, continue to fight over outstanding fees totalling $1,7 million.

The new $50 million hotel managed by Rainbow Tourism Group is operating on a temporary permit as the complex still needs a certificate of completion.

Mandishona, through his lawyers Chinyama and Partners, argues that the authority owes him over $1,7 million in architectural and management fees on the project as agreed in their 2007 contract.
