Bulawayo residents are complaining folowing the operation carried out by the BCC.The council is selling the property of residents who have arrears in their water bills.Many residents are complaining that the council is trying to recover its money in an unhumane manner.
Some are complaining that the council is leaving other debtors like the goverment,industrial and commercial consumers who also owe substantial ammounts.They are saying that the council is targetting orphans,widows and unemployed people while leaving the government,industrial and commercial consumers.This is a way of making these people poorer and poorer.The council is targeting to recover US$60 million owed to it by water consumers.The residents are saying that the local authority should be creative and find alternative ways of generating income,
Is this the correct way for th local authority to collect its debts? This need the public attention.What is your opinion?
