A few days ago, I wrote an article about the deals between Swiss Multinational Nestle and Mugabe's wife. The story generated attention with Now Public readers and members of the staff. It also generated a boycott threat from various human rights groups. I can now write that the story has a happy ending.


Nestle has announced that it will no longer buy milk from the farm owned by Grace Mugabe [wife of Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe]. This is great news and the Now Public Staff, readers, and human rights grous involved in exposing this story deserve a big thank you.
