Struggling Patrick Mkwamba says he sold part of the
groceries he received from King 98.
“I had no choice but to sell part of the groceries that I
got from King 98’s handlers since I received the stuff in bulk. When King 98‘s
people came to Rusape, they did not give me a chance to compile a list of what
I wanted and it appears they were concerned about reaching the Z$10000 figure.
“As a result, we ended up buying stuff in bulk and some of
the things I realised I would not use anytime soon. I was also afraid that some
of the stuff would rot. For instance, they bought a lot of meat for me but I do
not have a fridge at home.
“The guys also bought me some fresh and powdered milk that
I feared would either rot or expire because the stuff came in bulky.
“Imagine they also bought me 10 pockets of mealie-meal and
I only use one 10kg packet of mealie-meal per month and it meant I would be
stuck with a truckload of mealie-meal and rice,” he told H Metro.
