Hundreds of Cyclone Freddy Survivors in Phalombe district have spent four days without food and safe water.
The shocking revelation was made recently after A Lhomwe cultural group, Mulhako Wa Alhomwe visited Cyclone Freddy affected households at Phalombe Secondary School camp in the district.
The culture grouping donated assorted items such as Maize flour, soap and clothes to affected households at the camp.
Speaking after receiving the donation, Dorren Layelo said: “Tikuvutika kwambiri lero la nambala folo tisakudya kali konse (We are suffering, we have spent four days here without eating anything,”
Layelo, who hails from Bokosi Village which is a distance from the camp, then commended Mulhako wa Alhomwe for the donation describing it as ‘timely’.
“Let me commend Mulhako Wa Alhomwe for the donation, lero pamodzi ndi ana anthu tidyako nsima (today we will eat Nsima with our kids),” said Layelo, while appealing for public support.
