A white Shona speaking tout is causing a stir in Chitungwiza.

Kevin Oliver (35) said he was down and out and wished he was dead. He said he was orphaned at a young age and was raised by Social Services.

He used to drive a Kombi but when it broke down he found himself with no money and no home. He now sleeps rough in a Kombi at Makoni Shopping Centre. His health is failing and is always hungry.

"I am a tout here and people gather around me all the time. But the people I work for are mean. At times I get $2 the whole day while my peers get between $30 and $50 a day."

Oliver said his parents drank themselves to death, hence his upbringing was tough.
