Chitown municipali­ty not serious

- Letwin Chifamba

- I am an angry and disappoint­ed citizen because of what happened to me last week.

How can a local authority in the name of Chitungwiz­a Municipali­ty advertise in the local Press that the proposed Chitungwiz­a by-laws were open for inspection when they do not even have the copies of those proposed by-laws?

I wasted my fuel travelling to the municipali­ty and they made me wait for more than four hours as they were saying that they were looking for the copies.

How can such a big local authority be so disorganis­ed?

They first told me that I should go to the registry, but I could not access the copy.

I was then transferre­d to the informatio­n technology department and again the department did not have those copies.

I spent those four hours roaming around their office like a mad person.

If that is their day to day running of business, then the entire staff should be fired. How can a local authority have such incompeten­t employees?

I do not care if all of them lose their jobs because they are all useless. The local authority need a change so that it can have new and competent workers.

My failure to get served made me conclude that is what happens when people get too comfortabl­e at their workplaces.
