Local Government and Public Works Minister, Honourable Daniel Garwe, has nullified the suspension of City of Victoria Falls Town Clerk, Mr Ronnie Dube.
A letter issued this Friday to the Mayor, Local Government
and Public Works Minister Honourable Daniel Garwe, expressed concern that the
council’s resolution contravenes Section 139 (4) of the Urban Councils Act by
establishing two inquiry bodies, which could potentially harm the council
financially.
The Minister also noted that the decision to pay the
suspended Town Clerk allowances lacks support from any council policy.
The Minister’s decision is in line with Section 314 of the
Urban Councils Act [Chapter 29:15].
On the 3rd of this month, the City of Victoria Falls
council hastily convened a special meeting to ratify the Town Clerk’s
suspension. This came after Mayor Thuso Moyo allegedly hired a mob to serve the
suspension letter. zbc
