MATOBO District has resolved that women from each household should be the ones collecting food relief and cash from donors to curb the abuse of the hand-outs by men.

Matobo District Administrator Mr Robert Mzezewa said the community members agreed to the set-up as they believe women are more responsible when it comes to family matters.

Mr Mzezewa said non-governmental organisations such as Oxfarm, World Vision, Fambidzanai, Dabane Trust and Caritas were supporting some families in the district.

He said only women have been chosen as the recipients of the relief aid.
