Two well-diggers died in a suspected case of gas inhalation while working in a 25-meter-deep well in Jotsholo, Matabeleland North Province.
Their bodies were retrieved from the well by the Bulawayo Fire Brigade on Tuesday.
Mhlangano Moyo, the chief fire officer of the Bulawayo Fire Brigade, confirmed this to the <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/two-jotsholo-men-die-of-gas-inhalation-while-digging-water-well/">Chronicle</a>, saying his team was called to assist a group from Hwange that faced challenges in retrieving the bodies due to limited resources. He said:
<blockquote>
The Bulawayo Fire Brigade conducted a rescue operation in Jotsholo to retrieve the bodies of two male adults who succumbed to gas fumes while deepening a 25-metre well.
The information we have is that the first male adult went down into the well and after a while requested help citing poor air flow.
The second man followed into the well and unfortunately also became a victim of similar circumstances of gas inhalation.
The Hwange team that was initially summoned to attend the scene roped in the Bulawayo Fire Brigade for assistance as they had limited resources to carry out the rescue mission.
</blockquote>
Moyo warned community members in the Jotsholo and Lupane areas to remain vigilant against underground gases when digging wells. He said:
<blockquote>
The Lupane and Jotsholo areas have methane gases underground and communities in those areas are advised to hire drilling companies as opposed to digging wells on their own.
This is the fourth incident that has been recorded in those areas this year and there is a need for awareness campaigns to educate community members on the dangers of underground gases.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe is experiencing one of the worst droughts in living memory and this has led to rivers and dams drying up, forcing people to dig deeper to find water as the water table recedes.
As more people rely on the same water sources, the demand increases, leading to the depletion of these sources.

The second man went down to help and also got sick from the gas. The firefighters say the area has dangerous gases underground. They warn people to be careful when digging wells. This is the fourth incident this year. Zimbabwe is having a big drought and people are digging deeper for water. This is making the water sources run out faster.

Two Men Die Of Gas Inhalation While Digging Water Well In Jotsholo

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has implored the public to cover unprotected water bodies to avoid loss of life after a one year-six months old child recently drowned in a well while trying to get water to drink.
The incident occurred on 28 October 2022 at Mutamba Village under Chief Marozva, Masvingo.
ZRP spokesperson in Masvingo Province, Kudakwashe Dhewa confirmed the incident.
He said the toddler, Trevor Chakadenga, drowned after he strayed from his mother Rudo Mhere (29) who was tilling a piece of land.
<a href="https://masvingomirror.com/toddler-drowns-in-a-well/">The Mirror</a> reported sources as saying Trevor was playing in a field where his mother was preparing land for the Pfumvudza farming programme close to a hill.
The boy allegedly wandered off from the hill and drowned in a well as he tried to drink water.
After the mother realised that her child was missing, she searched for him around the field only to find his lifeless body floating in the well.
She retrieved the body and reported the matter to the police. A post-mortem was waived by Bikita Resident Magistrate Mugabe.
