During the launch of the Own Your Doorstep campaign in Harare, Harare Provincial Affairs and Devolution minister Charles Tavengwa emphasized the constitutional right of Zimbabweans to a clean and safe environment.
He underscored the initiatives since the National Clean Up campaign's inception in 2018, highlighting subsequent efforts like Operation Chenesa 1 in January 2024 and Chenesa Chapter 2 in June.
Tavengwa called for collective efforts from government, business, industry, commerce, and individuals to enhance the city's ambience and economy.
