Trade fair causes suspension of water rationing

THE Bulawayo City Council on Monday announced it had suspended its water rationing regime for a week, covering the 54th Zimbabwe International Trade Fair ZITF which gets underway on Tuesday and ends on Saturday.

Bulawayo residents have lived under a three-day-a-week water shedding schedule for the last four months as the city grapples with a water supply crisis.But council bosses have decided to keep the taps running as the city prepares to host thousands of visitors and exhibitors from around the world.

First impression is always the best one thus Bulawayo is trying to show the world how citizen live.Can we say its a bad thing that we all know water is never there but because there are visitors we just have to shut our mouths and enjoy.
