The water level at Umzingwane, one of the Bulawayo city’s supply dams, is critically low and the dam is scheduled for de-commissioning this month.

Apparently, Bulawayo City Council says due to deteriorating water supplies, a 24-hour water shedding programme will be introduced on 13 June.

The local authority is also planning a 48 hour water shedding owing to the same problem.

Bulawayo, Zimbabwe’s second capital has been facing water challenges for years.
