CHRA
demands elections now
Combined Harare
Residents Association (CHRA)
July 03, 2006
Today the Combined
Harare Residents Association (CHRA officially launched its rates
boycott campaign. Seventy members of CHRA in Ward structures leadership
lodged their objections at Town House and the Ministry of Local
Government, Public Works and Urban Development. Copies of the generic
objection letter are being sent to our lawyers the Zimbabwe
Lawyers for Human Rights for noting.
This launch
of the protests is in line with the CHRA resolutions made at the
weekend in Nyanga and marks the beginning of a winter of discontent
by the residents of Harare who are unable and unwilling to pay any
rates to the municipality until elections are held and sanity prevails
at Town House.
These letters
can be collected from CHRA offices at Daventry House Room 103, Cnr
South Avenue/Angwa St.
Please find
below what CHRA has produced in response to this crisis imposed
on residents of Harare,
