Patronage = Petrol (Belmont Motors, Bulawayo)


Belmont Motors, is the only garage in Bulawayo to have received fuel in the last two weeks.

Not only that, they have been getting such frequent deliveries of both petrol and diesel that the tankers actually have to wait until the underground tanks are emptied before they can offload their fuel.

All other garages have dwindled down to less than 5% of the normal delivery they used to get.

Why is Belmont Motors the only garage getting fuel?

Because it belongs to a friend of the Commissioner of Police, Augustine Chihuri, the very same man who has commanded Operation Murambatsvina which has caused so much destruction in Zimbabwe recently.

These queues must be the longest recorded since the fuel crisis began, at least 2 km long, such is the desperation of Zimbabweans for fuel.
