Also billed for Sunday 31 July are three ward level “Meet the Candidates Series” meetings where aspiring councillors in ward 11, ward 10 and ward 21 will get an opportunity to outline their policies and promises to residents.
  
The “Meet the Candidates Series” brings together aspiring Members of Parliament and Councillors to explain to the residents of Bulawayo what they have to offer if they win elections. The meetings also provide a platform for residents to question the aspiring officials on critical issues such as service delivery and policy issues. The meetings are being held as part of BPRA’s quest to create a culture of accountability and engagement in governance in order to ensure effective service delivery and pro-people policies.
