🚨 URGENT: OUR NEW ROADS ARE UNDER SIEGE! 🚨
The recently commissioned Shurugwi-Mhandamabwe Road, a vital infrastructure project personally opened by His Excellency President Mnangagwa, is already showing alarming signs of distress. Built with a 20-year lifespan, this critical link is now undergoing premature repairs.
Why? The primary culprit is clear: Overloaded Trucks.
The very heavy-duty vehicles that benefit most from this smooth, paved connectivity are irresponsibly breaking it down. The weight limits are there for a reason—to protect our national assets.
As highlighted by the Minister of Transport and Infrastructural Development, Hon. Felix Mhona, this is a profound issue of responsibility. The major beneficiaries of these multi-million dollar investments are, through overloading, becoming the agents of their rapid destruction.
This isn't just about potholes. It’s not about poor workmanship. It's about:
✅ Squandered National Resources: Millions in public funds are being eroded faster than planned.
✅ Compromised Safety: Damaged roads pose serious risks to all motorists.
✅ Economic Setback: Premature repairs divert funds from other needed developments.
We call upon all transport operators, mining companies, and regulators to PLAY YOUR PART! Compliance with load limits is not optional—it's a patriotic duty to protect our infrastructure.
Let's safeguard our investments. Report overloading. Enforce the laws. Protect our roads.

Today,Team B of the Joint Portfolio Committee on Lands, Agriculture, Water, Fisheries and Thematic Committee on Peace and Security conducted a tour of the impressive 50 million cubic meter Marovanyati dam, which boasts the capacity to supply water to the adjacent Murambinda growth point and irrigate a substantial 1,250 hectares of land. Although the dam is largely complete, the remaining works are crucial to its optimal functioning. Notably, the existing 40-hectare irrigation scheme near Murambinda growth point is currently benefiting from the dam's water supply, showcasing the project's potential for agricultural development and growth.
