Vice president Phelekezela is today expected to commission a borehole in Mbiriya Primary School in Tsholotsho.

The area falls under Higher Education minister Jonathan Moyo's constituency.

He twitted this morning saying : "Today VP Mphoko commissions a new classroom block, sports facilities & borehole at Mbiriya Primary School in Zwane!".

While campaigning for the seat last year,  Moyo and former  Water minister  Savior Kasukuwere commandeered Zinwa  to drill  boreholes in the constituency.

Moyo pledged that the government will drill 20 boreholes.

Moyo said the boreholes will be spread evenly across all 10 wards of the constituency to alleviate acute water shortages.

Tsholotsho is one of the driest and poorest districts in the country.

Water shortages have become perennial in some parts of the district.
