Zimbabwe, like many other countries, faces significant challenges related to water availability, particularly in rural areas. 


The Presidential Borehole Drilling Scheme, initiated in 2019, has been a pivotal government initiative aimed at addressing these acute water shortages. Sona Solar Zimbabwe delves into the impact of this scheme, specifically highlighting its benefits at the Johane Marange Apostolic Church International Headquarters in Rusape, and its broader implications for water security in Zimbabwe.


The Johane Marange Apostolic Church International and Water Challenges

The Johane Marange Apostolic Church International, headquartered in Rusape, is a significant religious and social institution in Zimbabwe. The church is renowned for its annual gathering, which attracts over 10,000 pilgrims from all ten provinces of Zimbabwe and neighboring Botswana. 

However, this large-scale event has historically been marred by severe water shortages, posing a substantial challenge to the organizers and attendees.

The Presidential Borehole Drilling Scheme

The Presidential Borehole Drilling Scheme was launched in 2019 with an initial target of drilling 35,000 rural boreholes, aiming to ensure that every village in Zimbabwe has access to clean water.

This initiative has been extended to include urban areas, reflecting the government's commitment to leaving no one and no place behind in terms of water access.

Timely Intervention at Johane Marange Shrine

In a significant development, Prevail International, under the auspices of the Presidential Borehole Drilling Scheme, has drilled a borehole at the Johane Marange Apostolic Church International Headquarters. This intervention came just in time for the church's annual gathering, addressing a longstanding water challenge that had plagued the shrine.

Zvanetsa Muchuchu, a representative of the shrine, expressed profound gratitude for the timely intervention. "We are grateful that our cries were finally heard, water has been a very big challenge as we host the biggest gathering every year in September. The gathering attracts more than ten thousand people from all over Zimbabwe and even Botswana, hence water is a need and we are happy Prevail International saw fit to drill a borehole here," Muchuchu said.

Immediate and Long-Term Benefits

The newly drilled borehole is expected to have both immediate and long-term benefits for the shrine and its community. During the annual gathering, the borehole will ensure that the thousands of pilgrims have access to clean water, alleviating the historical water shortages that have hampered the event.

Beyond the immediate relief, the borehole will also enhance the shrine's agricultural activities. Shadreck Mbiri, a long-time employee of the shrine, highlighted the significance of this development. "The borehole will not only alleviate the water crisis but also enable the shrine to enhance its agricultural activities through irrigation. The church looks after orphans and widows and we want to do agriculture to sustain us hence the borehole will enable us to do so."

Philanthropic Work and Community Impact

The Johane Marange Apostolic Church International is known for its philanthropic work, particularly in accommodating orphans and widows. The availability of clean water through the borehole will significantly bolster these efforts. By enabling irrigation for agricultural activities, the church can sustain its vulnerable population more effectively, contributing to food security and sovereignty.

Broader Implications for Zimbabwe

The Presidential Borehole Drilling Scheme is not limited to the Johane Marange Shrine; it has far-reaching implications for water security across Zimbabwe. The scheme aims to drill boreholes in every village, ensuring that rural communities have access to clean water for drinking and irrigation. This initiative also extends to urban areas, where boreholes will supplement water supplies from existing dams and reservoirs, addressing water shortages in cities like Harare, Chitungwiza, and Bulawayo.

Government Commitment and Future Plans

The Zimbabwean government has accelerated the borehole drilling program, particularly in response to recent cholera outbreaks in areas like the Marange district. Dr. Paul Tungwarara, special presidential advisor overseeing the borehole drilling program, emphasized the government's commitment to ensuring every Zimbabwean has access to clean water. "We responded to the distress calls in Marange and we are drilling boreholes for the communities here so as to ensure that people will not have to deal with medieval diseases like cholera and typhoid. We are also responding to President Mnangagwa's call of leaving no one and no place behind," he said.

The government's long-term vision includes the completion of major dam projects like the Gwayi-Shangani Dam and the Kunzvi Dam, which will supply extra water to Bulawayo and Harare. Until these projects are completed, the borehole drilling scheme serves as a critical short-term solution to the country's water challenges.
