Fruitful Zone Gatherings
- Written by: Gary Howes
Bulawayo: The first two zone meetings of the new programme, organised by ZDDT in an effort to improve the communication between the Ward leadership and the Trust, recorded a resounding attendance, with almost all wards represented, regardless of the Councillors’ commitment elsewhere.
The ten wards, representing Zones One and Two, who enthusiastically attended both the inaugural meetings, expressed their gratitude for Zimbabwe Development Democracy’s determination to improve the lives of members of the community.
“On behalf of all Councillors in Zone Two, I would like to thank ZDDT for their relentless efforts in making sure that our communities are living happily. You know, I need the whole day to describe how this organisation work tirelessly to develop Bulawayo and beyond. I can only say, God bless Sebenzela-Shandira Zimbabwe, Amen,” said Councillor Musonda amid roaring applause from her counterparts and their respective CATs.
Zone Meetings act as both feedback and action fora to strengthen leadership accountability and give community members a voice in how their neighbourhoods are managed.
