AS part of his Village Boy tour, Long John, the comedian, real name Learnmore Mwanyenyeka has teamed up with music legend Oliver Mtukudzi in hosting a charity show to raise funds to help out a local based football club Norton tigers.

The football club specialises in children aged 13 years and below and was founded by the late Vincent Gono and coach Phillip Nzvengende in 2012 in a bid to get kids out of the streets and drugs so as to reintegrate and rehabilitate them under a new life this football team offers.

“As the Village Boy Band we have decided to come together with the team to come up with an idea to host a show and raise money to buy equipment for the football club since they are currently working with one ball against a population of 95 kids which they managed to lure,” Long John said.

Long John told Sunday Life that they have teamed up with Oliver Mtukudzi who has provided them with the venue at Uzunzu Comedy Club in Norton scheduled for 7 April and as the Village boy band they are so grateful about this great gesture from the legend.
