Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>ZANU PF Bulawayo South legislator and businessman Raj Modi has offered a Tipper and Front-End loader to the Bulawayo City Council (BCC) to clear piles of uncollected garbage in the central business district (CBD).<\/p>\n

Garbage had piled up along the streets of Bulawayo over the past few weeks, with the local authority claiming it does not have enough equipment to collect it.<\/p>\n

In an interview with NewZimbabwe.com Modi, who is also the deputy minister of Industry and Commerce, said he decided to chip in with the equipment after some residents through a WhatsApp group complained about uncollected garbage in the city centre. Modi said:<\/p>\n

I decided to assist after some residents in the Bulawayo city centre WhatsApp group raised concern about uncollected litter which had become an eyesore in most parts of the city. I have dedicated a Tipper and Front-End Loader to the cleaning exercise which started yesterday.<\/p>\n

The deputy minister said the cleaning exercise will cover the whole of Bulawayo CBD.<\/p>\n

He also revealed that, apart from providing the cleaning equipment, his company has also embarked on printing posters and fliers urging residents not to throw rubbish everywhere.<\/p>\n

Modi added that the gesture is meant to complement the government\u2019s anti-littering awareness programme.<\/p>\n

The minister stressed that his gesture was not motivated by any political motive adding that he is helping as \u201ca concerned citizen.\u201d More: NewZimbabwe.com<\/p>\n
