Devolution funds spur development

Midlands Bureau
LOCAL authorities in the Midlands Province yesterday hailed the central Government for allocating them funds under devolution, which have transformed many lives in communities.

In separate interviews, officials from across the province said some local authorities had exhausted their allocations and were now waiting for new disbursements to complete outstanding projects.

Shurugwi District Development Coordinator, Mr Langton Mupeta said: “There were some suburbs that had gone for a long time without running water and the town council used the bulk of the funds they received under devolution to embark on the Sebanga water project and there is now running water in all the suburbs.”
