Rural
District Council chairman, Killer Zivhu has gone a milestone as he is
constructing houses to accommodate orphans and widows in Chivi.
Chivi
north, (ward 2) councilor, Mr. Saunders Magwizi said Zivhu’s kindness to the
people around him and the community as a whole shows that he is a true leader
as he is working towards developing the
welfare of the poor.
“What
Zivhu did can only be done by few. It shows that he is a true leader with
vision and heart for others .Not all
leaders are capable of fulfilling their promises to the people, but, Zivhu is
one of a kind, who has fulfilled his promises as we now see the house standing”
said Magwizi
Recently
Zivhu has donated two houses, one in Madyangove and the other in Nyengera
villages for widows and orphans, who are homeless as some of the projects which
has been initiated for community development.
One of the houses donated was given to a widow by the name, Svoko Ndambakuuya
in Nyengera village, who is taking responsibility for all the orphans whose
parents died of HIV and AIDS in the village, nurturing them and sending them to
school.
“I
had to take these orphans in because they had no shelter. However, the house I
was living in was not in good condition thus, Zivhu insisted in building a new
home for us. I am grateful” said Ndambakuuya
One
of the orphans Tatenda Chigwira said, their lives have since changed ever since
the chairman and other villagers are assisting them with food and shelter as
they were living in a house which was collapsing.
“We
are thankful for the chairman’s help and those who are helping in building the
house. Life hasn’t been fair to us for a long time until Zivhu came into our
lives.” Said Chigwira
Villagers
in both villages are expecting more assistance as they are more families with
the same problems.
