Gweru City Council has warned all evict all defaulting vendors as it soon plan to carry out a blitz to evict them.

Town Clerk Daniel Matawu said they won't hesitate to re-allocate the bay to people on the waiting list.

"Following our initial notice to you on payment of rentals arrears by 30 November 2015. You are once again urged to update your rental payments.

"Please take note that council will soon carry out a repossession blitz which will target defaulters.

 "Pay your dues. The repossessed bays will be reallocated to interested people on the council waiting list" said the town clerk".

Vendors rejected council's decision to relocate them to new

vending stalls following their eviction from the city center by municipal police.

Vendors say the new vending stalls situated at Kombayi Market and Lobengula Street where they are expected to pay $30 per month were too expensive.

Vendors who normally occupy the space at OK Zimbabwe, Pick N Pay among other outlets were forcefully evicted by baton wielding municipal police as Gweru joins other cities in the war against vendors.

The one metre vending stalls have been snubbed by vendors.
