BULAWAYO City Council (BCC) says it is facing challenges to mobilise funds to revamp most of its recreational facilities due to the economic challenges affecting the country. BY PATRICIA SIBANDA This was revealed last Saturday by BCC housing and community services department, conservation and education officer Thulani Magagula during a clean-up campaign at Centenary Park. Magagula said the situation had affected the standards at public toilets and the recreational parks which used to be green and had beautiful flowers and playgrounds. The clean-up campaign was sponsored by Club Likoma, Global Institute, Heads and Hooves and the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority. “We have been failing to maintain recreational parks due to the general collapse of the economy,” Magagula said. “Now we are also experiencing water problems and financial challenges to ensure the parks are well-taken care of. If people look at the recreational facilities now, they will think that it is BCC which is failing to plant trees and lawns, yet there is no water and more resources are needed,” he said. Magagula said even the recycled water from Thorngrove was now rarely available as the city faces crippling water challenges. He said with the limited resources at BCC, they were trying to prioritise revamping water and sewer systems. “We are now prioritising water, sewage reticulation and ensuring that there is enough lighting in the city. After that, we can then talk about revamping of recreational facilities,” he said. Magagula said companies and other stakeholders that used to support the BCC were also struggling and were unable to support council with resources to take care of recreational facilities. lFollow Patricia on Twitter @patrici60905217

By ELAINE GANLEY Associated Press PARIS (AP) — The pressure rises with each gruesome attack. After three in five weeks, France's Muslims are feeling squeezed. A spotlight of suspicion was trained on them again even before the latest acts of extremist violence, including two beheadings. President Emmanuel Macron has forged ahead with his effort to rid Islam in France of extremists, part of a project he labels 'separatism,' a term that makes Muslims wince. Amid intensifying rhetoric and fresh attacks by outsiders, including the killings of three people Thursday at a Catholic church in Nice, Muslims in France have kept […]

US President Donald Trump and his Democratic rival Joe Biden launched a final campaign sprint on Saturday ahead of the November 3 presidential election.
With more than 91 million votes already cast, Trump and Biden are out of time to reshape the race.
They are instead focusing on their base and making sure that any potential supporters have either already voted or plan to do so in person.
Biden held his first in-person campaign events with former president Barack Obama on Saturday in the predominantly Black cities of Detroit and Flint, Michigan.
Obama will campaign for Biden on Monday in Georgia and in South Florida, another area of potential concern if Latino voters sit out the election.
On Saturday, Obama said Trump was a president “who goes out of his way to insult people just because they don’t support them”.
“With Joe and Kamala at the helm,” he said, “you’re not going to have to think about them every day. You’re not going to have to argue with your family about him every day.”
Biden planned to spend much of Sunday in Philadelphia, which is 30 miles from his longtime home in Wilmington, Delaware.
Biden established his campaign headquarters in Philadelphia.
The city gets intense focus because it’s such a deep trove of Democratic votes, especially nonwhite voters.
On Sunday, Trump continued his final campaign sprint in Michigan, where he will speak at 10 rallies in seven swing states.
Trump is down in the latest polls and is turning to these large gatherings to help keep his message in front of voters.
“This is a hell of a day. You guys must love Trump, this place is packed,” said Trump, who jokingly complained throughout his speech about the cold.
“It’s really a contest to see if we can all stand it. And we’ll get through it. And we’ll love it.”
