NEWS:

One girl child Tendai Songwe 9yrs was attacked on her way home after she received her meal, it seems the man wants to defiling Tendai but her friends who run away as they were moving three  the two run away and tell the community around who shortly come for the rescue of Tendai.  Tendai was taken to Seventh day Adventist Hospital who confirmed  Tendai was not defiled, and Tendai says she was not beaten by the man.

The man report was saying the children was scolding him hence he was angry with the children.

The issue is been undertaken by the Village Chiefs at the mean time but the atmosphere is alright currently.

CHALLENGE:

- There is more and more demand of the intake of the Orphans staying in the villages without benefiting the food that is offered at the Orphancare.
