Handing over the boreholes in Harare’s Epworth suburb, Ambassador Almassri said the people of Palestine will continue to support the government of Zimbabwe because of the bond that the two nations have been sharing.
” After attaining independence in 1980 , Zimbabwe was the first country to open an embassy for The State Of Palestine , we share the same predicament of the apartheid history that Zimbabwe went through and Zimbabwe has been very supportive to the Palestinian people in our pursue for our independence from the Israel apartheid government.
Professor Obert Jiri received the boreholes on behalf of deputy minister Davis Marapira .
“We are gathered here to witness another milestone in the water sector’s drive to achieving universal access to safe water for all . As government we feel greatly honoured to be receiving these boreholes, that have in the interim eased challenges of accessing portable water to the people of Epworth ” said Prof Jiri.
