Harare mayor Councillor Jacob Mafume said the fight against drugs is a critical issue in Hatcliffe and across the capital city.

Speaking at the campaign against drugs and substance abuse held at Hatcliffe Community Hall on Friday, Cllr Mafume said the City of Harare is determined to eradicate drugs, identify people who are selling drugs, identify and rehabilitate victims and try to find something for the people to do.

“But it is imperative that we double down on our efforts to deal with drug abuse, that we double down on solutions,” he said.

“This is a pandemic, this is a citywide and nationwide problem that we have to tackle head on.”
