‘Probe corrupt land allocations in Harare’

ENVIRONMENTAL pressure groups have made a clarion call for duty bearers to investigate corrupt land allocation in Harare and bring the culprits to book.

In a joint statement this week, the Cleveland Action Alliance, Network for Environmental and Climate Justice and Residents against Land Degradation expressed concern over illegal land allocation, including on wetlands.

They said it was unfortunate that despite a legal framework that guaranteed protection of the environment, Harare, like many other cities and towns, continued to witness illegal land allocation that compromise environmental sustainability.
