Magistrates’ court for Mkoba

GWERU City Council intends to convert the Zaire Bar in Mkoba 6 to a magistrates’ court as part of nationwide efforts to bring the justice delivery system closer to people.

Speaking during an ordinary council meeting last week, town clerk Vakai Chikwekwe said the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) had approached the local authority over the setting up of a court in Mkoba.

“They (JSC) said they had found a donor who needs existing infrastructure to renovate into a court,” Chikwekwe said.
