Ngivulile ngisebuthongweni ngizitshela ukuthi sekubuya uyise wabantwana kodwa ngathi uma ngibona ingalo ngaqaphela ukuthi kayisuye, ngazama ukuphusha isivalo. Akuzange kusize ngoba bavele basifuqa ngamandla, bangena phakathi,” utsho kanje.

Ucine ethi uNjabulo katshayele uSphe ucingo, amtshele ukuthi imali isilungile, besesima layo emgwaqweni ngezikhathi zekuseni (ngoLwesihlanu). Uthe ingane uzayithola uma angabhadala imali,” kutsho uNkszn Shozi.
