A resident of Muyako in the Zambezi Region, Patrick Matengu, is appealing to the government to consider some sort of compensation for cattle lost to a natural disaster.

Matengu this week woke up to five of his cattle struck by lightning in Maalo Village in the Muyako Area. 

Farmers in the Zambezi Region are appealing for government support following the devastating loss of their cattle to lightning strikes.

For many of these farmers, cattle are their primary source of livelihood, and the recent incidents have left them in urgent need of assistance to recover.
