[QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 50624, member: 636"] Bernard Benneti turned his life around behind bars at Chinhoyi Prison Farm. The 37-year-old man from Kutama broke into someone's place four years back because he needed money to feed his brothers and sisters. His parents died when he was young and left him to care for everyone. He got desperate and made bad choices that landed him in jail for four years. Life hit him hard and he ran out of ways to survive. Prison changed everything for Benneti who became a top inmate and earned respect from guards. He discovered he loved growing vegetables and fruits through the jail's training programs. The man leads farming projects that make more food than the prison needs. Guards let him sell extra crops to people in nearby towns. His good behavior got him special rank and leadership roles. Prison bosses want to help Benneti succeed when he gets out next year. They talked to village leaders in his hometown about getting him land for farming. The guards plan to give him tools and seeds to start his farming business. Superintendent Gilbert Mavhako says the prison wants to rebuild people instead of just punishing them. Benneti warns others to stay away from crime because jail wastes precious years of life.
