ZIMBABWE’S VISION 2020-HARARE has dirty slimy water coming out of their taps.

In 2019, a water quality test commissioned by the Harare City Council through Nanotechnology Water of South Africa revealed that the city is pumping water laced with deadly toxins that can potentially cause liver and central nervous system ailments.
The tests were conducted as the city struggled to mobilise US$3 million required to import treatment chemicals every month to guarantee its three million residents of consistent supplies, barring other unpredictable challenges.
“As you may be aware, the primary objective of the trial was to demonstrate the oxidative capacity of Chlorine Dioxide on the plant’s incoming and inherent algae in the plant and its associated toxins, pathogenic (disease-causing) micro-organisms and other micro-contaminants),” the report signed off by Nanotech programmes manager Gideon Reyneke reads.
“The plant trial results were as follows: 100% oxidation and/or removal of algae and associated toxins specially hapatotoxins and neurotoxins by Chloride Dioxide. 100% removal of biofilms and associated algae in the clarifies number eight and consequently, the water clarity was visually and aesthetically improved.
“The significance of the results is as follows: oxidation of algae, particularly filamentous algae, which is not possible with the current battery of chemicals. Chlorine Dioxide usage will lead to less rapid sand filter backwashes, longer filter run times and consequently more water produced.”Although the quality of water is poor, Harare residents use the water for cleaning, washing and other household chores, while using borehole water for drinking.
For the past three months, Highfield, for example, has not received consistent water and power supplies, condemning its dwellers to a life of abject misery. The problem of erratic water supply has become widespread in Zimbabwe, with some areas like Mabvuku, Chitungwiza and Ruwa going for years without consistent supplies. On the odd occasion when water comes out, it is usually at midnight when people are asleep.
In Zimbabwe, where public office bearers have generally become economical with the truth, no-one has been able to sufficiently explain the root cause of the problem. It has just been finger-pointing, with the Zanu-PF government and MDC-led council blaming each other for the water crisis.
Amid the water woes, itself a symptom of a deep-seated economic malaise, Zimbabweans have never been short of jokes to dramatise their misery.Shockingly, even after publication of the damning report which sparked outrage from residents, Harare mayor Herbert Gomba said the water, infested with those detected toxins, was safe for consumption.
Gomba said: “(The water is) safe to the extent of the feedback we are getting from our quality control team and those who look at standards of product on the market.
www.newzimbabwevision,com says, its the same water in your restaurants, takeaways, tourist resorts, hotels, International flights to and from Zimbabwe, soft drinks, fake bottled spring water and we can only advise, proceed at your own risk, the president said Zimbabwe is open for business and obviously if you die from consuming this obviously toxic fluid excuse for clean safe drinking water, its still good business for funeral palours, coffin makers, grave diggers and sellers and all burial businesses,..Im just saying! Lest you forget, Harare water is on record for raw sewage flowing through water taps direct delivery to you. That said,…blame it all on the Mnangagwa militarised Zanu pf regime for its failures. -Sibusiso Ngwenya-Independant
