Harare now has a total of 59 councillors; 45 who were elected from Harare's 45 Wards and 14 female councillors who were elected through the 30 percent women’s quota for local authorities.

Happening now!!! Harare residents are in a pre-budget consultative meeting at Townhouse. @hrw @cohsunshinecity @LocalT @HarareResidents @zimdevolution1 @CameraInform @HreResForum @crisiscoalition

Section 277 (3) of the Constitution of Zimbabwe stipulates that, "councillors of local authorities assume office on the ninth (9th) day after the announcement of the results of the general election in which the councillors were elected."

In addition, the Urban Councils Act 29:15 Section 47)(3) gives the Town Clerk the duty and responsibility to the swearing in of newly elected Councillors before assumption of duty.

The delay in the assumption of duty by Councillors has a serious potential to create a leadership vacuum that is open to manipulation.

Harare Residents call for a Social Service Delivery Election Agenda, anchored on constitutionalism supported by; 1. Accountable Local Elected Leadership 2. Devolution and Decentralisation 3. Infrastructure Development 4. Sustainable Revenue Generation #residentsmanifesto2023
