A Chinese businessman at a controversial cement plant died after a reported lightning strike. The incident happened in Magunje following a tour of the WIH-ZIM facility by local provincial minister Marian Chombo, according to activist Farai Maguwu. The plant, a 700-million-dollar project meant to produce huge amounts of cement and clinker, is facing community pushback over its location near a dam. Maguwu suggested supernatural forces were involved, claiming the strike occurred under a clear blue sky that developed a single small cloud after the official's visit.

While beliefs about unnatural lightning are common in the area, the country was experiencing widespread heavy rains and storms around that time. The investor was initially treated at Magunje Hospital before being transferred to Karoi Hospital, where he passed away. The activist's account directly links the death to the community's fierce resistance against the industrial project, which local political leaders insist will continue despite environmental and location concerns.
