The National Matabeleland Zambezi Water Project is set to take off soon, following a $1, 6 billion cash injection by a Chinese company reports NewsDay.

Water Resources Management and Development minister, Samuel Sipepa Nkomo yesterday told a local papers that the Chinese company, which he declined to name, sent a team of experts a fortnight ago to draw maps of the project.

Commenting on fears raised by stakeholders that the recent establishment of mines in the Lower Gwayi catchment area would negatively affect the construction of the Gwayi-Shangani Dam, Sipepa Nkomo said he would institute investigations.

Recently, Sipepa Nkomo clashed with Bulawayo Metropolitan Governor Cain Mathema after the latter asked the army to intervene towards completion of the Mtshabezi-Umzingwane pipeline.

Mathema accused Sipepa-Nkomo of delaying the project.
