The Khama Billiat Foundation has labelled fake reports circulating on social media that they are planning to donate foodstuffs to Zimbabweans living in South Africa’s Soweto, The Citizen reports.
The foundation released a statement denying the rumours and said they had no plans of donating food at the moment. Said the foundation:
From Khama Billiat Foundation we would like to unreservedly distance ourselves from the claims circulating around social media platforms an internet spreading false information about Mr. Khama Billiat and his colleagues donating food parcels for Zimbabweans on the 12th of April 2020 in Soweto.
Mr Billiat and foundation have nothing planned regarding any sort of public donations knowing well it’ll put many lives at risk. We respect lockdown conditions made by the Government and will continue to do so until the official period.
Reports had been swirling on social media saying Khama and his fellow teammate Willard Katsande were going to donate food to Zimbos in Soweto tomorrow.
