Speaking to Sedibeng Ster Sport, former Kaizer Chiefs defender Mokete said when Ndlovu approached them they saw this as an opportunity to contribute to their community.
“I want to thank Mr Ndlovu and Ms Matete for bringing us on board and I must say it was heart warming to see the smile on the faces of the elderly people. This initiative made me realise how people are desperate for food. I was touched to see how much they appreciated the little they received.”
