Cash-hamstrung Harare City Council has ring fenced at least 3 470 stands to offer its employees in lieu of salary arrears dating back to 2017.

The council, battling to pay workers’ salaries and provide basic services owing to low revenue inflows, has also announced to launch a blitz targeting debtors, to offset some of the employees backlog. Addressing journalists at Town House this morning, Housing committee chairperson Hammy Madzingira said the allocation of stands to beneficiaries will commence in two weeks time.
