Chinhoyi Municipality threatens to name-and-shame debtors, sue after 14-day ultimatum

The Municipality of Chinhoyi has given companies, institutions and households two weeks to pay up overdue bills.

The council says mounting arrears are crippling service delivery and forcing tough collection measures.

Ratepayer groups have urged the municipality to pair enforcement with visible improvements in services.
