Fumukwe

Eastern Africa

Fumukwe is a village in Manama ward in the province of Matabeleland South, Zimbabwe. It is located south of Gwanda on the road to Manama, and it is a small commercial centre. The Thuli River runs just west of the town. Villagers manage the community's water through a series of informal and formal means, and the arrangements of open wells can present danger: in 2015 the village gained headlines when a two-year-old child fell into a 12-metre well and was rescued by his mother.
