Water

The water crisis in Chitungwiza is an emergency and Wistmer is currently working on addressing it through the following means:

  • Leveraging the Jonasi Aquifer
  • Conveyancing water from Muchekeranwa Dam through Wenimbi Dam to Harava Dam in order to provide an additional 30ML of raw water supply for the water treatment plant.

Work has already begun on the Jonasi Aquifer. Wistmer is drilling 40 aquifer boreholes on the site. We shall convey the water from Jonasi to the Makoni Reservoir where it shall be distributed into homes.
