A 25-year-old University of Zimbabwe graduate, Ruth Hwara who was battling Chronic Kidney Disease has passed away.
just saw a message in the Hwara group that Ruth is no more. May her soul rest in peace,” Nyikadzino wrote on her social media platforms.
In April this year, Ruth’s fundraising team announced that she was seeking US$30 000 to undergo a kidney transplant in India.
Some say it was an Ec**ash agent that stole the money.
According to reports, Ruth’s uncle, Nigel Makono, had turned to social media to raise funds for his niece’s urgent medical procedure. The donations were channelled through Makono’s EcoCash account, which eventually reached its limit, prompting him to seek Chibwe’s assistance.
Chibwe allegedly deceived Makono, promising the cash was available but only handing over a small fraction of the total amount. Makono made additional transfers totalling US$13,000 but received only $1,100 from Chibwe, who then became evasive when confronted.
Rest In Peace
