Hundreds of disadvantaged families from Gokwe Nembudziya have
benefitted from an initiative undertaken by legislator Cde Justice Mayor
Wadyajena in line with efforts to guarantee food security at household
level.
Erratic rainfall patterns experienced in the country during the
October to December rainfall period severely affected the maize crop
across the country exposing many families to the harsh reality of food
insecurity.
To safeguard against the resulting effects of this situation which
affected areas like Mudzi, Rushinga and Gokwe, Cde Wadyajena undertook
an initiative to cushion farmers in his constituency by donating 30
tonnes of rice targeted to benefit over 5000 families.
Addressing hundreds of people in Gokwe Nembudziya, Cde Wadyajena
emphasized the need for everyone in the community to benefit regardless
of political affiliation since it is a donation from the President.
The emphasis by the legislator puts to shame what opposition
political parties have been alleging regarding partisan distribution of
food to communities.
Zimbabwe has received inadequate rains in some parts of the country
hence affecting yields for this season while other ecological regions
had enough rains to guarantee bumper harvest.
