Zimbabwe Receives Food Donation From Rwanda

Zimbabwe has received a donation of 1,000 metric tonnes of mealie meal from Rwanda as the country grapples with the effect of a drought caused by El Niño.

This drought has left half of Zimbabwe’s population, which is over 15 million people, facing food insecurity during the 2024-2025 season.

Rwanda’s Ambassador to Zimbabwe, James Musoni, handed over the donation to Zimbabwe’s Minister of Local Government and Public Works, Daniel Garwe, at the Grain Marketing Board’s Aspindale Depot in Harare on Thursday, September 19.

This is the second donation Zimbabwe has received from Rwanda in 2024.

During the presentation, Musoni said that when President Emmerson Mnangagwa declared a nationwide state of disaster in April, President Paul Kagame responded out of a spirit of “ubuntu.” Said Musoni:

In the spirit of ‘ubuntu’, his counterpart and brother His Excellency, Paul Kagame, President of the Republic of Rwanda heard it and immediately responded to the call by dispatching a consignment of 1000 metric tons of maize to Zimbabwe.

Africanism and Rwanda’s culture specifically, call us to stand in solidarity with each other during difficult times. In the same spirit, Rwanda and Zimbabwe have been supporting each other.

Musoni said that in 2019, Rwanda supported Zimbabwe during Cyclone Idai, and in 2023, Zimbabwe returned the favour by assisting Rwanda after heavy rains led to flooding and landslides that resulted in over 130 deaths and significant damage to infrastructure.

Accepting the donation from Rwanda, Garwe, who described Rwanda as an all-weather friend to Zimbabwe, said:

I am very grateful to the Government of Rwanda for responding positively to the clarion call for support by the Government of Zimbabwe following the 2023/24 El Nino-induced drought disaster that we are grappling with. This is a clear demonstration of our seamless relationship.

As I receive this donation with a deep sense of gratitude, I wish to highlight that the donation will go a long way in cushioning the cereal requirements for the affected communities.

The Government will ensure that the donation being received reaches the intended last-mile beneficiaries who were targeted on a needy basis.

Zimbabweans, who are based in Rwanda are the ones who are producing this maize. They are teaching Rwandans how to farm, and now Rwanda is a big in security. Not our tsotsis, they are an elite of resource looters . With their friends, children, wives and bazukurus, are on a final hundred- metre looting competition. The winner is the winner, and is known, the coup leader, the election - snatcher, the the system manipulator. The owner of everything in Zimbabwe, land, water, oxygen and many others. His friends say, the land belongs to...., the water belongs to..., with pride. Quite appalling to be aZimbabwean,..

Imagine, someone behaving like a form 2 student, the way he speaks pompously about being a big boss in everything, while his people are running like rats in South Africa, eish. I always thought Mugabe was a tyrannist, no he wasn't. There was this bad and incompetent so called fake president behind him. He, with his stone heart, delivishly commanded and instructed Mugabe to do all what he badly did. Zimbabwe has got everything that takes to be a full human being, in human resources that can make us a giant in everything, eg food security, political growth, etc. Quite appalling to see ourselves brutalized like this in South Africa, when our country now belongs to an elite, a bunch looters, murderers, lawless quacks, liars, thin- minded leaders.
