Plumtree villagers cry for development

Plumtree villagers have expressed concern over lack of development in their area, which they say has led to youth delinquency due to unemployment.

They said although the place is situated next to the border, there is no meaningful development such as industries that can absorb the youth in the area, who end up engaging in sex work to earn a living.

Ntombiyabo Ndlovu said tenders for the development of the area are also given to people from outside the district.
