Zanu-PF Midlands province has engaged the Transport ministry to spruce up roads that will be used by President Robert Mugabe ahead of an interface rally scheduled to be held in Gweru on Friday.
Although the roads fall under the jurisdiction of Gweru City Council, employees from the ministry's department of roads have been working round the clock since Monday to resurface the road from the Mtapa Cemetery roundabout to the Mambo suburb turnoff.
Mugabe is expected to visit Mambo Secondary School, where he was once a teacher in 1954, when it was still a primary school. Roads leading to the venue of the rally, Mkoba open space, are also expected to be repaired before the Zanu-PF leader's visit.
