Divine Intervention or Sabotage? Power Outage Steals the Show at Zimbabwe’s Economic Summit

A mysterious power outage disrupted Vice President Constantino Chiwenga’s keynote address at the Zimbabwe International Business Conference (IBC) at ZITF. The incident sparked speculation about possible sabotage, given the timing and Chiwenga’s growing influence.

Just as Chiwenga was about to deliver his address, the lights went out, plunging the auditorium into darkness. The Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC) and ZITF management apologized, citing an “unexpected fault on the power line” and a technical failure of the backup generator.

Despite the glitch, Chiwenga delivered his remarks, emphasizing the need for bold leadership in Zimbabwe’s economic revival. His presence and message reinforced his growing influence in the country’s economic planning.

Bulawayo Minister of State for Provincial Affairs, Judith Ncube, hailed Chiwenga’s presence as a sign of government’s commitment to reindustrializing the city. The conference highlighted the importance of coordinated leadership and strategic planning in driving economic growth.

Despite the power outage, the conference continued, with industry leaders and experts discussing ways to revitalize Zimbabwe’s economy. The event showcased the country’s determination to move forward, even in the face of challenges.
