Students at Zhomba High School started acting really strange, and school leaders had to send everyone home. This happened in Gokwe after kids began showing bizarre behaviors that people believed might be caused by spirits. It started with just one student on Monday, but seven more students showed the same weird symptoms very quickly. The problem became serious enough that school officials felt they had no choice but to close.
Mr. Martin Musakanda runs the Gokwe North District and said officials were heading to the school to check things out. The school principal, Mr. Washington Chikunichawa, made the call to send the students away because their actions scared other kids. Local chiefs planned a meeting to figure out what steps to take next. The community leaders needed to decide how to handle this unusual situation before letting students come back.
According to Spencer Tshuma, who represents Gokwe-Kabuyuni in the government, weird stuff has happened at this school before. He mentioned an incident from last year when a strong wind picked up a student's test paper during an exam. The paper flew through the air and landed about 500 meters away from the classroom. People remember this earlier event as they try to make sense of the current problems.
The school remains empty as education officials, traditional leaders, and parents search for answers about what caused students to act strangely. Many locals believe something supernatural might be happening at Zhomba High. This belief stems from the history of odd events plus the sudden way multiple students started behaving unusually at the same time. The community waits anxiously for news about when classes might restart.
