The Harare City Council has deemed 213 stands in Budiriro 5 Extension unsuitable for human settlement due to flooding. The area is prone to flooding when the Marimba River overflows after heavy rains.
The council has urged residents to relocate, citing risks associated with living in the area. This is not the first time Budiriro residents have faced flooding issues, with similar incidents occurring since 2020.
The government has reassigned 40 households to new homes at Dzivarasekwa Flats. However, concerns remain about the council’s responsibility to ensure residents’ safety and well-being. Urgent action is needed to address the root causes of the issue.
