Whi-Zim Cement has clarified reports circulating on social media about a lightning incident involving a Chinese national linked to its Magunje project, saying key details being shared online by some sources are inaccurate.

A company source confirmed that the individual was struck by lightning but did not die and is currently receiving medical treatment.

The company said the incident did not occur in the circumstances described on social media and was not linked to official visits or events at the project site.

Whi-Zim urged the public to rely on verified information as investigations and medical assessments continue.

Zim Now will update readers should verified information from medical or official authorities become available.
