Hon Garwe Commissions Service Vehicles in Chivi
The Minister of Local Government and Public Works, Daniel Garwe, has commissioned a fleet of service vehicles and equipment in Chivi District, in a move set to significantly improve service delivery and local governance.
The commissioning ceremony marked a major step in the Government’s efforts to enhance development at grassroots level, in line with the “Call to Action: No Compromise to Service Delivery” launched by Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa on 1 November 2023.
Speaking at the event, Minister Garwe said the initiative reflects the Second Republic’s commitment to accelerating development and improving the quality of life for citizens, particularly in rural communities. He emphasized that the programme is anchored on the national Vision 2030 agenda of building an empowered and prosperous upper-middle-income society.
The commissioned equipment includes a VTZ front-end loader, a Red Lion fire tender, a 20 cubic metre HOWO tipper truck, 40 motorcycles for councillors, and two service vehicles. The fleet is expected to strengthen road maintenance, disaster response, and administrative efficiency in the district.
Minister Garwe highlighted that the acquisition of the equipment was made possible through a combination of devolution funds and internally generated council resources, demonstrating accountability and effective utilisation of public funds.
A key highlight of the ceremony was the handover of motorcycles to councillors, which is expected to greatly improve their mobility and effectiveness. With some wards covering distances of more than 60 kilometres, the motorcycles will enable councillors to better engage with communities, monitor development projects, and respond promptly to citizens’ needs.
“This is about empowering our local leadership structures and ensuring that no community is left behind,” said Minister Garwe.
The commissioning of the Red Lion fire tender was described as a crucial development in strengthening disaster preparedness in Chivi, a district prone to fires, road traffic accidents, and other emergencies. The addition of road construction equipment is also expected to improve infrastructure, facilitating economic growth and access to services.
Minister Garwe also commissioned two service vehicles acquired through internal council funding, which will support project supervision and enhance service delivery.
He commended councillors for their dedication and urged them to make full use of the new equipment in serving their communities. He also expressed gratitude to the Government of Zimbabwe for its continued support under the leadership of President Mnangagwa.
The event was hailed as a game changer for Chivi District, signalling a new phase of development and reinforcing the Government’s commitment to inclusive growth and sustainable service delivery.

Mazowe Walk is already coming to life and it’s exciting to see.

Phase 1 has taken shape beautifully, with businesses now open and actively serving the community. Shoppers and visitors can already experience the convenience and vibrancy brought by Redan, SPAR, MedOrange Pharmacies, Pizza Inn & Baker's Inn under Simbisa Brands and Profeeds - each adding to a growing retail ecosystem in Mazowe.

At Gateway Construction, it’s rewarding to see this vision transitioning into a functional, thriving space. From the layout and design to the finished infrastructure, Phase 1 reflects the kind of quality and impact we aim to deliver in every project.
We appreciate how this development is already contributing to the local economy and community experience and we’re even more excited for what lies ahead

Phase 2 is on the horizon.

Binga is not a peripheral district; it is a strategic economic frontier that Zimbabwe has long neglected at its own cost.

Anchored by Lake Kariba, the Zambezi River, and a rich Tonga cultural heritage, Binga possesses natural and human assets capable of driving tourism, energy production, food security, and cross-border trade. With targeted investment in infrastructure, renewable energy, aquaculture, and cultural industries, Binga could generate jobs, foreign currency, and inclusive growth for the national economy.

Government neglect has turned potential into poverty, yet the fundamentals for transformation remain firmly in place. Investing in Binga is not charity or regional favoritism; it is sound economic policy and long-overdue national correction.

MPACT ACCESSIBILITY: BINGA RURAL DISTRICT COUNCIL GRAVELS SEBUNGWE NARROWS ROAD.

The Binga Rural District Council has taken significant steps to enhance transportation in Ward 8 by beginning the gravelling of the Sebungwe Narrows road. Previously impassable due to its sandy terrain, this initiative aims to provide residents with reliable access to essential services and economic opportunities.

The Sebungwe Narrows road has long been a challenge for local residents and travelers. During the dry season, the sandy conditions made it nearly impossible for vehicles to navigate, restricting access to fishing camps, holiday homes, and health care facilities. The lack of a reliable road infrastructure not only inconvenienced the community but also hampered economic activities in the region.
In response to these issues, the council has mobilized resources to gravel the road. This process involves laying down layers of gravel, which provides a stable driving surface and improves drainage. By addressing the sandy conditions, the BRDC aims to create a more durable and accessible road for all users.
The gravelling of the Sebungwe Narrows road represents a crucial development for Ward 8 within the Binga Rural District. As work progresses, the community looks forward to revitalized access and the bright prospects that improved infrastructure brings. This initiative exemplifies how local governments can meet the needs of their residents by investing in essential services for better future opportunities.

BINGA RURAL DISTRICT COUNCIL ACQUIRES NEW 10-CUBiC Tonne TIPPER TRUCK TO ENHANCE ROAD CONSTRUCTION

The Binga Rural District Council has taken a significant step towards improving road infrastructure in the region with the acquisition of a new 10-cubic tonne tipper truck, funded with support from ZINARA. This addition to the council’s fleet aims to bolster road construction efforts, ultimately benefiting the community and enhancing connectivity.

The newly-acquired tipper truck, officially handed over during a ceremony attended by council officials and community leaders, is expected to significantly improve operational efficiency. With its larger capacity, the truck can facilitate quicker and more effective transportation of essential materials such as gravel and sand, which are vital for ongoing road construction projects.

Engineer Mr Zibusizo Nyoni emphasized that the new vehicle will play a crucial role in maintaining and upgrading roads, thereby ensuring better access for residents and improving overall transportation networks. Enhanced capabilities mean that the council can respond efficiently to infrastructure needs, thus fostering community satisfaction and development.

The acquisition of this vehicle holds important economic implications for the Binga district. Improved road infrastructure can boost local businesses by providing better access to markets and resources, thereby fostering trade and economic growth. Additionally, enhanced connectivity can attract more visitors and potential investors to the area, contributing to overall economic vitality.

The Binga Rural District Council extends its heartfelt appreciation to His Excellency, the President of Zimbabwe, for his unwavering support in ensuring that no place is left behind in development. The council acknowledges that this acquisition is a testament to the government’s commitment to improving infrastructure and fostering growth in all regions.
The acquisition of a 10-cubic tonne tipper truck by the Binga Rural District Council marks a significant milestone in the quest for improved road infrastructure. As the council continues to invest in development with the support of ZINARA and the government, the community stands to benefit from enhanced roads and connectivity. The new truck not only symbolizes progress but also showcases the dedication of the council to meet the infrastructural needs of its people efficiently.
