Description
(Text)
Zimbabwe is a developing country. Epworth happens to be a small city just next the capital city Harare. 90 per cent of Epworth dwellers are living in slums. Cholera outbreaks are rampant in this settlement. The town has 167 000 people (2012 census). The local board which is the authority over the areas seems to be powerless in terms of controlling its area due to national policies which do not allow destruction of houses by these authorities. The council ever since 1990 has been trying to regularize the settlement. The 2015 regularization process seems to be a successful one is is still in progress.The research therefore seeks to achieve the following objectives which are to determine causes of citizen resistance, to find out the importance of development in modern day governance, to come up with better remedy to resistance and determine the total populace that is supporting council programs and those that are against it and lastly to identify causes of the sprawling urban informal settlements in Epworth and to come up with the conclusion and recommendations on how to counter resistance.
