A state of disaster was declared in Zimbabwe.

Eighty-two people have so far been confirmed dead across the country, and a lot of infrastructure damaged in Chimanimani and Chipinge, following a trail of destruction left by Cyclone Idai in the country.

Manicaland Provincial Meteorological Officer Mr Lucas Murambi said though it’s sad to note that lives have been lost, it is good know that the cyclone has since subsided. 

Econet Wireless Zimbabwe pledged to match dollar-for-dollar on all contributions made towards Cyclone Idai Relief Fund.

For instance, if 10,000 people contribute $1 000 000, Econet will also contribute $1 000 000 (Click here to find out how you make your donation using EcoCash and other means).
