DOZENS of families in lower sections of Dulivhadzimo were left with nowhere to sleep after their homes were flooded after heavy rains pounded the town yesterday.

People living with disabilities at a cottage in the area around the Dulivhadzimo bus terminus were among the most affected as officials hurriedly met to mitigate the perennial problem.

Several other houses around the area, including Beitbridge Municipality hostels, were affected with damages reported on furniture and electrical gadgets.

Residents blamed their town’s poor drainage system.
