*Heavy Rains Cause Flooding Victoria Falls* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?if The Victoria Falls City Council has urged residents to desist from blocking the smooth flow of water via the city’s drainage system as this results in flooding in residential areas. A torrential downpour on Wednesday morning resulted in flooding in parts of the city. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- On one hand, council authorities blame residents for the floods saying the storm drains are clogged by garbage comprising beer bottles and containers, plastic, diapers, used sanitary pads, rags and other items. On the other hand, residents blame the local authority for the floods saying city fathers are failing to clear drains to prevent flooding. The worst affected areas are the Hwange-Victoria Falls road whose eastern lane was destroyed near truck stop, Ingugama road in Mkhosana and Pioneer road in the industrial area, as well as some houses near the VID depot in Mkhosana. Victoria Falls Town Clerk Ronnie Dube advised residents to remove any rubble in front of their premises as it is also contributing to the clogging of the drainage system. Said, Dube: > We wish to advise the residents to desist from clogging the drainage system with litter and not to block the drainage system using soil in the name of seeking passage across the drain to their houses as this defeats the whole purpose of a drain and causes flooding. > Council will carry out an extensive exercise to identify and fine all those who clog our drainage system with building materials. | CITE _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
