By Staff Reporter HEAVY rains pounded the dormitory town of Chitungwiza Friday afternoon leaving a trail of disaster with hundreds of families affected after their homes and property were destroyed. However, no loss of life was reported. Government spokesperson Nick Mangwana said the crisis in Chitungwiza needed urgent intervention before blaming the residents for constructing houses on wetlands. “Not a good situation at all. Definitely building on wetlands is self-defeating,” he said. “Flash Floods have been reported in Chitungwiza Unit M, N, A, Zengeza 4 and Manyame. The provincial emergency services and rescue sub-committee are going there this morning (Saturday) for initial assessment and possible action.”
