Residents plead with Tsvangirai over prepaid water

THE Combined Harare Residents’ Association (CHRA) last Friday pleaded with main opposition MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai to order his councillors in the main cities to stop the proposed installation of pre-paid water meters in residential areas.

The plea was made by CHRA director Mfundo Mlilo while making his address during Workers’ Day celebrations organised by the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions at Gwanzura Stadium in Harare.

“Workers are burdened already and we are saying no to pre-paid meters – and we demand to know where local authorities are getting that policy from because workers are saying no to it,” Mlilo said.
