Jackline Mwende, who gained widespread attention after her husband allegedly severed her limbs due to her inability to bear children, has been given a new house and supermarket.
According to reports, Stephen Ngila attacked his wife on July 18, 2016, after seven years of marriage without conceiving a child.
Mwende underwent treatment and was fitted with myoelectric prosthetics in South Korea on September 26, 2016.

The supermarket, named 'Zawadi mini supermarket', officially opened on Sunday. The four-room house, equipped with solar power and a water tank, was constructed on her father's farm by the German organization.
