Zimbabwe's government pledged to keep working with businesses and community groups to house people who've been left out, according to Marian Chombo, the Minister of State for Mashonaland West Provincial Affairs and Devolution. She spoke at a double celebration in Kadoma, marking the city's 25th anniversary and the distribution of 15 buildable plots to residents with disabilities. Professor Kudakwashe Taruberekera, a philanthropist and CEO of Craft Properties, donated the land, with 10 plots going to people with disabilities and five to those living with albinism.
The recipients said getting their land means dodging the discrimination and rough treatment they face as renters. Taruberekera credited President Mnangagwa's push for social change as his motivation, saying he wants to help achieve Vision 2030 goals. Craft Properties has also built classrooms, drilled water wells, and given satellite internet kits to rural schools, and the company plans to construct another classroom block at Kaiva Primary School in Kariba district.
