KEEPING MY CITY CLEAN

The National University of Science and Technology part two journalism students planned to do a cleaning campaign in the city of Bulawayo. The event is going to be held at Egodini bus terminus on the 13th of March. Bulawayo "the city of kings"  is one of the biggest city in zimbabwe and we want to make it number one in terms of cleanliness. In partnership with Chicken slice, Environmental Management Agency (Bulawayo), Bulawayo City Council people are going to pick litter, donating bins and sweeping the streets.

In early January comrade Joseph Chinotimba who is a member of parliament carried out a clean up campaign at Mbare in Harare to demonstrate how the city council should improve in  cleaning the country especially when they concentrate on garbage removal. He used his official parliamentary vehicle to carry the garbage and urged other officials and MP's to follow suit. http://www.herald.co.zw/mbare-residents-hail-chinotimba/

As NUST students we were challenged to see an official doing this great work. This campaign will educate people on the dangers of littering both to health and environment. Garbage can cause diseases like cholera and malaria etc. I encourage other NUST students to partner with us in keeping our environment clean.
