Tholeni Village, where a mother allegedly killed her children before taking her own life apparently due to starvation, is ravaged by poverty and unemployment, the humanitarian group Gift of the Givers has revealed.
"For me poverty is not a factor here. This is a mental health issue," opined Fanta, without providing evidence to back up the claims.That monthly child support grant money is not enough to buy groceries to last even for a week. It is time for government to reconsider this amount.
Gift of the Givers founder Imtiaz Sooliman said: “Our teams brought abundant supplies of food to initiate soup kitchens for instant satiety of desperately hungry men, women and children.”'We are living in cursed times': Mom arrested for killing 4 children with sledgehammer while they slept “Community food gardens would provide sustainability, but lack of water is the limiting factor. Gift of the Givers will support the various villages as best we can, another self-inflicted death through hunger is an indictment on our nation as a whole,” said Sooliman.
