Following a burst on our water systems connecting to Lochinvar, the City of Harare wishes to apologize to residents of the western suburbs particularly Glen Norah, Glen View, Aspindale and Kambuzuma for a dry weekend.

But we are delighted to report that supplies have since been restored as pumping resumed from 2000hrs last night.

The problem was triggered by power outage on Friday. When it was restored we experienced a double burst, the first one at 975, which when we completed, the second one occured at a different location.

That necessitated a stop to fully fix the problem before resuming pumping last night at 2000hrs. Any inconveniences caused during this exercise is sincerely regretted.

The City of Harare wishes to advise all our beloved clients, stakeholders and government that due to safety barricading of roads leading to our Rowan Martin Building, access by vehicles is a bit laboured.

We therefore urge all our clients to use alternative banking halls at Harare Water (Old Mutual House) on Sam Nujoma and Speke Avenue, for the services.

Others can use all our District Offices in the neighborhood. Those in close proximity to the CBD can decamp to Remembrance road offices in Mbare, Belvedere, Highlands or Sunningdale until access to Rowan Martin is resumed.

Any inconveniences caused are sincerely regretted.

Rufaro Stadium update....

Rufaro stadium which was officially opened in 1972 by then deputy Mayor of Salisbury (now Harare) Jock Alves, has been currently undergoing refurbishment to attain Fifa A match status.

The works at the venue, popularized by soccer are going on well with the turf looking pristine and ready for matches, when homologation certificate by First Instance Board (FIB) is finally issued.

Currently final touches to the ablutions, changing rooms (to be kitted with state of the art optics), referees rooms (both male and female), doping rooms (furnished) media centre (echo friendly) gates and turnstiles, is in the final stages of completion.

But already the ceremonial home of football is looking attractive and crowd safe.

Those working on the venue, are determined to have the facility ready for matches soon.

A technical tour of facility last month by officials from the FIB, Zifa and PSL indicated satisfaction at the standard and quality of application, to bring up the venue.

The FIB indicated that all safety obligatory boxes need to be ticked before the final homologation certification.

The City of Harare, owners of the venue are working round the clock to finish work with the world class parking lots and the SMEs units built around it, already completed to add a business touch to the environment.

Rufaro, when finally fitted with the bucket seats would be an easy shoe in venue for national team games, a proposal that would be forwarded for consideration to Fifa when works are completed and FIB certified.

Zimbabwe Anti Corruption Commissioner, Thandiwe Mlomane encouraged the City of Harare, whose Audit and Integrity Committee met to draft an anti graft policy, to be diligent when dealing with corporate governance issues, as it helps plug holes in the administration of statutory obligations.

Speaking during the very critical draft exercise, Mlomane praised the local authority for the being the first of all the 92 local authorities to engage and invite the anti graft authority in coming up with a policy that will ease the governance challenges.

"I must applaud the Harare City council Audit Committee for initiating this policy engagement.

"ZACC is a key stakeholder that must help local authorities understand the laws governing their practices.

"It must be mentioned that we consider Harare, which is the second largest governing authority in the country after government, as a pacesetter on this exercise which I feel should open the doors for other local authorities to come out with such policies, she said.

Harare Mayor Cllr Jacob Mafume also thanked the anti graft organisation for coming clean on issues that have often found the local authority at serious crossroads.

"This is an important engagement which makes lives for councillors and local authorities easy, as opposed to engaging only when there are arrests to be made.

"As Mayor of the City most of our concerns have been noted and it is our hope we will have a policy that will make it safer to operate as a local authority.

"Most of the problems we have faced included these graft related issues but that we had PRAZ, Auditor General and ZACC in one room to find a common working ground, is a welcome development, Mayor Mafume said.

Town Clerk Eng Hosea Chisango in welcoming delegates to the workshop, also thanked the Audit and Integrity Committee chairperson Cllr Keith Charumbira for organizing such an important exercise.

"An Audit and Integrity policy will make our compliance issues with government and all stakeholders easy as we will generate corporate governance framework and standard operating procedures, to use in our service delivery.

"The policy will be our tool kit that will cover all our service chain deliverables in terms of the law.

"This will curb incidences of toxic relationships with compliance arms of governance that has often found us on the wrong side," Eng Chisango said.

The Audit and compliance policy, a first of its kind by any local authority, is a signature of commitment by the local authority, which will help strengthen internal control systems and improve service delivery.
