By Own Correspondent- A nurse at Bulawayo’s Mpilo General Hospital volunteered to accompany Cherish Muchegwa to India for reconstructive surgery.

This was revealed by Zanu PF legislator and deputy minister of Industry and Commerce, Raj Modi.

He said:

Meet Sister Sinanzeni Moyo, the nurse with a good heart. She volunteered to accompany Cherish Muchegwa to India, leaving her husband and children behind for a week.

We thank her husband for allowing her to fly out. We must also thank Mpilo Hospital for releasing her.

Muchegwa sustained serious injuries after she was bitten by the dogs resulting in her being hospitalised at Mater Dei Hospital before she was transferred to the United Bulawayo Hospitals (UBH) as she could not afford the bills at the private hospital.

Modi coordinated the raising of close to US$10 000 from well-wishers needed for the woman to travel to India and be operated on.

She was bitten by her landlord’s 5 rabid dogs. The dogs have since been put down.
