Furthermore, the campaign extends an invitation to residents in various wards across Bulawayo to join the clean-up efforts in their respective areas, underlining the belief that it is a collective responsibility to maintain the city's beauty and cleanliness.

The "Big Spring Clean Up" initiative has gained momentum on social media, with the hashtag #MyCityMyPride becoming a rallying cry for residents and supporters alike. It serves as a reminder that the transformation of Bulawayo requires the active involvement and commitment of its citizens.



As the campaign continues to unfold, the city anticipates witnessing not only a physical transformation but also a renewed sense of community pride and responsibility.
