"Please Do Not Close Our Beer Halls"... Chitungwiza Residents Cry Out To Council.

The Town of Chitungwiza has always raised a lot of hope and anticipation for the multitudes of people who have once or always called it home.

Many great names have an association with the great town of Chitungwiza. Names of note include former Galatasaray S.K Midfielder and Zimbabwe Soccer Captain Norman Mapeza, Alick Macheso, Nicholas Zacharia, Dhadza D, Guspy Warrior, the late Dembo, the late Marshall Munhumumwe, the late System Tazvida, among others. Apart from performing Artists and Musicians, Chitungwiza has also produced great visual artists particularly in Shona Stone Sculpture. Chitungwiza has produced world-renowned Sculptors like Nesbert Mukomberanwa, Sylvester Mubayi, Willard Chiwawa and the late Fanizani Akuda. This makes Chitungwiza a very interesting.

One of the core responsibilities of a well run council is to ensure that recreational facilities are made available to its residents. We today read the sad news that the Municipality is going to be leasing its beer halls. Whoever made the decision to get rid of this recreational facility in my honest opinion is creating a much more unbearable situation.

Beer halls in Chitungwiza were made to provide drinking facilities out of sight from minors and other people. Due to the facilities being neglected for a very long time they have now become derelict. These facilities were places were people could enjoy themselves at the same time maintaining their privacy.

Before Chitungwiza Municipality leases these facilities, lets ponder on what could have been the best alternatives.
Upgrade the Infrastructure: Upgrade the in-structure to meet the modern trends. I have observed that people from all walks of life love enjoying their braai whilst drinking and eating local relishes. Renovating the facilities to match the dynamic needs of the new generation would be a noble objective.

Convert The Beer halls Into Fitness Facilities: There are no spacious sports bars around Chitungwiza. Upgrading the facilities would go a long way in providing the much needed recreational facilities.

The fear that is currently bothering people around Chitungwiza is understandable. Take it this way, if a church is to lease the facilities then the beer halls will become churches. If the beer halls are leased by a college owner then they will become schools. if a company like Econet is to lease the facilities then the beer halls will become Econet Shops. But what will happen to the drinking Public? Would it not be better if they are left in private places rather than out in the open.

I am sure Chitungwiza Municipality employs a Town Planner who is much more conversant with the points that we are trying to make.
