A PROLONGED power outage at the Gwenhoro water treatment plant has left several Gweru suburbs without water for over 48 hours.
In a notice to the residents, Gweru City Council said residents and other stakeholders are experiencing a temporary water supply disruption due to power outages affecting water pumping operations.
“The City of Gweru wishes to inform its residents, clients and stakeholders that there is currently a disruption in the water supply due to ongoing power outages. These power outages have hindered our ability to pump water for extended periods, resulting in a temporary shortage of water supply,” reads part of the notice.
