Young boy almost dies

I took breakfast and thereafter left for the work. When I arrived at the work, I was only concentrating on reviewing the Fairtrade premium budget. I observed that some differences or balances should be well indicated in other projects to be spent. I allocated some balances in corresponding with the planned developmental projects.

The young boy almost to die of an oxcart
In Malawi especially the Shire Valley most of the farmers have oxcarts. Most of these oxcarts are driven by young boys in most cases. At around 6:45am, four young boys boarded an oxcart. It was so terrible when one of them fell and stuck in between the tire and the body. His friends were just laughing as if it was funny while his was crying firmly holding the upper body of the oxcart. Thereafter he collapsed and stepped on by the tire. Unfortunately his parents were at their farm. No any elder person around that incident. My wife found him crying with deep cuts and blood was flowing. She took him home and took rendered first aid treatment.
