Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>England-based Zimbabwean midfielder, Marvelous Nakamba, has committed to paying school fees for more school children through his Marvelous Nakama Foundation (MNF).<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, 28 June, Nakamba visited his rural home in Hwange District and announced that he will pay school fees for 110 pupils at Dinde Primary School.<\/p>\n

The Aston Villa midfielder was a pupil at Dinde Primary before he moved to Bulawayo.<\/p>\n

He initially started paying school fees for 90 pupils, but the number has risen to 200, with the beneficiaries set to get school uniforms, winter necessities and school shoes.<\/p>\n

Nakamba toured the school in the company of the school headmistress, Sithabile Viki and members of MNF who included his father Anthony. Nakamba said:<\/p>\n

I am happy to meet you, my young brothers and sisters. I am happy with the support you have given me.<\/p>\n

To me, you are family and I will help you when I can so that you achieve your dreams.<\/p>\n

Nakamba pledged to reconstruct the two-classroom blocks and assist in completing a block of toilets that are under construction.<\/p>\n

Viki expressed gratitude to Nakamba for paying school fees for disadvantaged children as well as committing to improving the infrastructure at the school. She said:<\/p>\n

The children that are sponsored are orphans and vulnerable, who are staying with very elderly parents. I am all smiles. I am happy.<\/p>\n

If you check, our classroom block has been giving us headaches with goats coming in and out at will. This is good news.<\/p>\n

Some of the learners were coming to school barefooted. We appreciate what Marvelous has done.<\/p>\n

MNF also pledged to electrify teachers\u2019 quarters and construct another cottage.<\/p>\n
