GWERU Residents’ Forum (GRF) director Charles Mazorodze has castigated council for trying to sell land around the Gweru Sports Club to private developers as part of efforts to expand the central business district (CBD), saying such a move would deprive the city of recreational facilities.
Mazorodze accused some councillors and management of wanting to dispose the sporting facility for personal gain.
“The Gweru Residents’ Forum has received disturbing reports emanating from Gweru Town House that there is a cabal of some councillors and council management officials who are pushing the agenda of selling council-owned Gweru Sports Club and its environs to a private developer,” Mazorodze said yesterday.
