BULAWAYO - Residents have been urged to keep their communities clean, plant more trees and prevent deforestation to ensure fresh air and sustainable development in the city.
The call was made by Civic Society and Churches Joint Forum (CSCJF) Coordinator Max Mkandla during a National Tree Planting Day activity held at Mafakela Primary School in Luveve on Thursday.
The event was conducted in collaboration with the Environmental Management Agency (EMA), the Forestry Commission, and schoolchildren.
Mkandla said a total of 30 trees were planted, including 15 windbreakers such as pine trees and 15 fruit trees such as avocados, guavas and oranges.
"If all wards in Bulawayo can do like what Luveve is doing, then we will be enjoying good health and development in Bulawayo. Entumbane is following but weak on their programmes," Mkandla said.
