A Murewa businessman just hooked up a rural school with a serious tech upgrade. Sam Mapingure donated ten laptops and a full Starlink wifi system to Zhombwe Primary School, aiming to bridge the digital gap for learners near Zhombwe Mountain. He said the move supports the national push for a digital economy, arguing online access is essential for student research and studies.
The donation event included ministry officials and local Zanu PF leaders. Mapingure, originally from Murewa North, also pledged to build a classroom block at the planned Zhombwe Secondary School, addressing a critical shortage that forces students to walk long distances to Magaya Secondary after primary graduation. He promised his construction would complement existing community efforts, targeting a completion date to end those long treks for local kids. The district faces a massive lack of secondary schools, making this infrastructure commitment a significant local development.
