Residents here have bemoaned worsening load shedding by the Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority. The parastatal announced earlier this week that three pumps that generate electricity in Hwange have broken down.

Residents have expressed disappointment that ZESA is failing to manage the country’s electricity generation equipment despite the fact that residents are charged exorbitant rates and pay fixed charges. They face power cuts of between 12-14 hours every day.

They have also been irked by the fact that the parastatal has failed to state when the problem will be rectified. The worsening power cuts are having a dire effect on invalids, children and women.
