Council intensifies clamping

With reports suggesting that Gweru city council rakes in between $5000 to $10 000 per day in clamping fines, the local authorities has intensified the exercise.

This morning three trucks used by municipal police closed in mercilessly on heavy and light vehicles alike in an effort to increase revenue.


Council stands accused of using 70 percent of money in their coffers to pay workers, with the remainder reserved for service delivery, when the opposite should apply.


Town clerk Daniel Matau is also under fire for getting a $9000 salary, way above the $6000 ceiling set by the Ministry of Local Government.


The militant parking marshalls were this week seen wrestling with pirate taxi drivers, while they were engaging in a war of words with touts from Kudzanai bus terminus after clamping buses that parked at the entrance of the rank.
