Presidential spokesman Mr George Charamba said President Mugabe and the First Lady Amai Grace Mugabe had been deeply touched and hoped the foodstuffs would assist the families in this hour of deep grief.
“The President and Amai Grace Mugabe have given food assistance and other amenities to the late Adam Nlovu’s family for use during his funeral. Part of this assistance will be given to Nomqhele Tshili’s family,” said Mr Charamba.
He said the Bulawayo State House has also given water and firewood to the families.
The former Zimbabwe international striker and Tshili died when the BMW vehicle they were travelling in overturned near Victoria Falls Airport plunging the nation into mourning.
The food assistance comprised cooking oil, sugar, meat, vegetables, flour, rice, bathing soap, and toiletries among other things.
