52-year-old Marina Steynberg has been widowed for several years. Her husband served in the South African National Defence Force for 27 years before his untimely death in 2016 but his family is yet to receive benefits of his labour.
“It has been 16 years since my husband’s death but we only receive R3,500 a month and about R700 worth of medical aid cover. We were promised housing, and school and university tuition. My only child wants to study Beauty Therapy but she can’t because we have no money,” she explained.According to Kelebohile Molete, her family also depends on medical aid from the SANDF but claimed that it’s often suspended without reason.
According to Premier Ntombela’s spokesperson, Setjaba Maphalla, issues of pension, tuition and medical aid are handled by the National department of military veterans , however, the Free State department of education is in the process of decentralising educational support from the DMV.
