ZNCWC board chair, Dr Lamiel Phiri said the development was alarming and relevant authorities should engage gold panners and educate them against “swiping” juveniles. He said: > Can you imagine losing six junior councillors, this is very bad. This goes on to show how early marriages have wreaked havoc in the country. > We hear stories of gold panners ‘swiping’ young girls for a certain fee, I never thought it was serious. > I suggest that relevant authorities engage these gold panners and educate them against swiping young girls. Kwekwe District has a total of 56 junior councillors from Kwekwe City, Zibagwe Rural District Council and Redcliff Municipality. Zibagwe RDC, which caters for the rural part was the worst affected. *More: Chronicle* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
