Ngondoma River

Ngondoma River

Ngondoma River is a river in Zhombe Communal Land, Kwekwe District in the Midlands province of Zimbabwe.[1]

Location

Ngondoma River is in the Midlands Province, although some claim it to be in Mashonaland West Province. Rivers are usually identified at their mouths, and the place where Ngondoma River flows into Munyati River is indeed Mashonaland. Munyati River serves as a border of the two, set several metres on the Midlands side.[2] Just before its confluence with Munyati River, it passes over Mabura Caves,[3] a bat guano mine in Somapani area of Zhombe.[4]

Sources

Ngondoma River rises in the northwest of Zhombe in what was known as Ngondoma Crown Land,[5] However, the main drainage basin is the Mapfungautsi Forest[6] on the Gokwe side of the river. It flows east and then northeast, where it forms part of the border with Gokwe, before entering the Munyati River.

Tributaries

The main tributaries of Ngondoma River are:

Ngondoma Dam

In 1967, the Ngondoma Dam was constructed on the river 67 kilometres (42 mi) northwest of Kwekwe and 54 kilometres (34 mi) southwest of Kadoma (by air). The dam holds more than 7,000,000 cubic metres (250,000,000 cu ft) of water.[7] It supplies the government managed Ngondoma Irrigation Scheme 900,000 cubic metres (32,000,000 cu ft) of water per year by a 5.8-kilometre (3.6 mi) gravity-driven concrete-lined canal.[8]

Bridges

Ngondoma River has two busy bridges. The larger one is across the Kwekwe-Gokwe Highway near Fafi School and the other one is on the Gokwe-Empress Road about 2 km down stream from the Ngondoma Dam.
