Chivi South legislator Killer Zivhu yesterday bought food for 200 street kids in Harare and urged residents to take care of the underprivileged.

While eating the food with the streets kids, Zivhu went down memory lane, narrating his first day on the streets of Harare and how street kids helped him out and treated him like their brother.

“August 6 is an important day in my life because I arrived in Harare for the first time on that day in 1995 and I didn’t know how to get to my relatives. As you know, it’s not everyone who had a cellphone,” he said.

“I had to stay on the streets for four days and I was helped by street kids. They are the ones who showed me the police station and the streets of Harare. Because of them I was able to meet my relatives.”

Zivhu urged residents to help children living on the streets and give them a decent meal whenever they could.

He said it was everyone’s responsibility to protect the street kids.State media
