THE Bubi district administrator’s office complex at Inyathi Centre in Matabeleland North province is reportedly sitting on a ticking health time bomb, as the complex has no ablution facilities, with staff using toilets at the bus terminus, a distance away.

Human rights activists in the province have called for closure of the office complex until toilets have been provided.
#ThisConstitution leader, Abigail Mupambi confirmed the development last Friday when she visited the DA, Juma Dube’s offices.
“I am suggesting and demanding closure of the complex until such a time the complex has toilets. From time immemorial the complex does not have toilets. In fact even one small toilet, which is inside the offices is not functioning,” she said.
“As a human rights defender, resident and concerned citizen, l think the complex has to be temporarily closed in the interest of public service and public health.”
Mupambi said the DA’s complex houses the ministry of Justice and the magistrates court, District Development Fund, Agritex, Civil Service Commission and several other government departments.
“I might end up filing for a court order to have these premises temporarily closed if nothing positive is done,” she said.

Mupambi said the workers at the complex were forced to use toilets at the bus terminus, a distance away.
Contacted for comment, Dube yesterday denied meeting with Mupambi, but could neither confirm nor deny that the complex had no toilets.
“She has not approached me, and at the moment I am attending a meeting and I am not sure when I will finish, we will talk when I finish attending the meeting,” Dube said.
