*Government Neglecting 38 Trapped Miners Needing Emergency Rescue* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?yv Prominent Zimbabwean journalist, Mduduzi Mathuthu has decried the absence of meaningful government assistance in the ongoing emergency rescue effort for 38 small scale miners. The miners are trapped in a shaft in Battlefields, Kadoma and have been under since Wednesday night when rains flooded the area. ---------- itel A70 256GB $99USD WhatsApp: https://wa.me/263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- Despite the need for professional emergency services to rescue the miners, the government hasn’t offered much. The rescue effort is being led by the miners’ colleagues. Pictures of the site today just show the presence of a police officer at the site and no presence of any professional rescuers or professional equipment. Said Mathuthu today: > I’m sorry but Zimbabwe IS A JOKE. Anything up to 38 decent people presumed dead underground, and it’s literally other artisanal miners leading rescue and recovery effort. You’ve a President eating lobster with foreign diplomats! Entire resources of state MUST BE in Battlefields > To the government of Emmerson Mnangagwa, this is the single most important issue today. Yet you have up to 38 families right now facing grim prospect their loved ones won’t make it out alive from those flooded mines. The emergency response is a joke. We are truly on our own! > Looks like the death toll from Battlefields mine disaster will leap past 40. But our government goes on like nothing has happened, or is happening. This happened 11PM Thursday, and here we are – placing the whole burden on their colleagues who can’t be in the right frame of mind *Related:* *PICTURES: Fellow Miners Lead Rescue Effort For 38 Buried In Flooded Mines* *BREAKING: 38 Miners Feared Dead In Flooded Battlefields Mine Shafts* More: Mathuthu on Twitter _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
