councillors, with nothing to show for the five years spent in office, had requested to parade council’s new plant and equipment at campaign rallies.
However management turned down the requests arguing it would set a wrong precedent and disadvantage others in the race for office.
The equipment valued at US$17 million was bought through credit financing implying that it is the residents who pay back for the loan and not the individual councillors. The loan deals were structured by the city management.
Mr Masunda made the comments at Town House today when he commissioned vehicles and refuse bins bought under the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
