Zimbabwe's Midlands Province is taking a major step towards ensuring access to clean water for its rural communities. 

The Provincial Affairs and Devolution Minister, Owen Ncube, recently launched the Presidential Borehole Drilling Programme in Chirumanzu District, aiming to drill over 70 boreholes by the end of 2024.

Addressing a Critical Need: Clean Water for Domestic Use and Livestock

This initiative is a response to a critical need for clean water in rural areas. Limited access to clean water sources poses health risks and hinders daily life for many Zimbabweans. The boreholes will provide much-needed water for domestic use, such as drinking, cooking, and sanitation, while also ensuring a reliable source of water for livestock.

A Collaborative Effort: Second Republic, Zinwa, and Local Authorities

The Presidential Borehole Drilling Scheme is a collaborative effort spearheaded by the Zimbabwe National Water Authority (Zinwa) and supported by the Second Republic. The ultimate goal is to equip each of Zimbabwe's 35,000 villages with a solar-powered borehole by 2025. 

This ambitious project represents a significant investment in rural development and public health.

Empowering Communities Through Devolution

Minister Ncube emphasized the Second Republic's commitment to devolution, a policy that empowers local authorities to plan and manage their resources. The allocation of devolution funds to Chirumanzu District enabled them to acquire a drilling rig, allowing them to take charge of addressing their water needs.

This not only improves water access but also fosters a sense of ownership and self-reliance within the community.

Beyond Boreholes: Building a Brighter Future for Chirumanzu

The Chirumanzu borehole drilling program is just one piece of a larger development puzzle. Minister Ncube highlighted several other high-impact projects underway in the district, including road infrastructure upgrades, new clinics and schools, and the construction of a major steel manufacturing plant. These initiatives, combined with improved water access, aim to create a more prosperous and empowered future for the people of Chirumanzu.

A Model for Progress: Replication and Sustainability

The success of the Chirumanzu borehole drilling program has the potential to serve as a model for other districts across Zimbabwe. By effectively utilizing devolution funds and collaborating with national authorities, communities can address their water challenges and pave the way for broader development. The long-term sustainability of this program will depend on proper maintenance of the boreholes and continued investment in water infrastructure.

A Brighter Future with Clean Water at its Core

The launch of the Presidential Borehole Drilling Programme in Chirumanzu District marks a significant step forward for the Midlands Province. With access to clean water, improved sanitation, and ongoing development initiatives, the future looks brighter for the people of Chirumanzu. 

This program serves as a testament to the power of collaboration, devolution, and a commitment to improving the lives of rural Zimbabweans.
