In a heartwarming display of corporate social responsibility, popular Glendale based traditional healer, Peter “Sekuru Nyangatayani” Chingudzi, donated pads, groceries, winter wear and toiletries worth hundreds of United States dollars to Bindura Prison inmates.
This philanthropic gesture brought joy to inmates this Sartuday.
A former inmate, Frank Vhera, was among Sekuru Nyangatayani’s donation team and he brought hope to fellow inmates after encouraging them to know that a jail term is a phase that will pass.
Speaking at the event, Vhera, who saved for a year on assault charges said he convinced Sekuru Nyangatayani to come and donate to the prison.
“My good friends we came here with my brother Sekuru Nyangatayani. l told him to remember you as he usually donates to different people. So this time l convinced him to remember you and he agreed,” Vhera said amid thunderous cheering.
“So we brought winter wear and various goods because l know its winner so we need to fight the cold,” Vhera added.
The soft spoken Sangoma met inmates both male and female, with joy.
“It is my joy to come and donate various goods here , yes my brother told me to come and see you and above all make a donation so as l always do, l then saw it fit to donate these goods to you guys,” he said amid thunderous cheering.
To express their joy Bindura prison choir unleashed sweet acapeller music which prompted Sekuru Ngangatayani to splash $100 to the group.
Meanwhile, the Sangoma is also in patenarship with musician Chipo Muchegwa in donating goods to people living with disabilities.
