Road portion showing the destruction of roads by haulage trucks

Following an exposition by our citizen reporter, Emmanuel Manyati in Mutoko who is constantly doing stories on the destruction of roads and other infrastructure related to the extraction of the black granite stone in the area, works towards refurbishments has started showing signs of commencement.

Haulage trucks transporting black granite stone from Mutoko are a common site.

Local residents have been complaining over the lack of meaningful benefits for their community from which the extraction of the highly sought after granite stone have been taking place.

Heaps of gravel and construction sand have been deployed at various points for road repairs

The local district council together with the several mining companies conducting operations in the area have both been accused for not doing enough in terms of developing the area despite the huge profits being realised from the venture.
