Zimbabwe has auctioned cattle worth one million dollars to raise money for the African Union (AU) Foundation to help end the “donor dependency syndrome”, President Robert Mugabe has said.
According to BBC, He added that he had donated 300 cattle from his herd, and other Zimbabweans doubled the number as they wanted to contribute towards a “noble cause”.
Mr Mugabe handed the $1m cheque to the AU at its leaders’ summit in Ethiopia.
The donation comes amid a severe cash and food crisis in Zimbabwe.
