As darkness continues to engulf Nigeria, Zimbabwe has just fired its Power Minister because he couldn’t guaranty 8 hours of electricity.

               
           
               
                   

Mr. Joram Gumbo, Minister of Energy and Power Development in Zimbabwe, has been fired by President Emmerson Mnangagwa, as the South African nation goes through its worst blackout in three years.

               
           
               
                   

TheCable reports that the minister had licensed over 30 companies to provide solar power to the country and that he had concluded plans to travel to Mozambique, a neighbouring country, to tie up an electricity supply deal.

               
           
               
                   

But President Mnangagwa had other ideas as he relieved Gumbo of his job and replaced the embattled cabinet member with Fortune Chasi, the Deputy Minister for Transport and Infrastructural Development.

The state-owned Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC), announced that there will be blackouts across the country for about eight hours daily.
