Princess


Princess Ngoneni Ziney was seven years old when both her father and brother Bhekokwakhe got shot by warriors and died. We moved away from that village to another and that is where she physically got shot. "we were ambushed on our way from school by a very big mob of heavily armed people. all i can remeber is that they were silent and the next thing i remember is that i woke up in Scotsburgh hospital in the ICU and I was toled it was after 12 days coma.
I am now on a wheelchair although i can walked with the aid of a walking stick.
We tried to get the RDP house but it never worked for us and nobody knows why. My sister died of HIV and AIDS, leaving behind 2 young children. one of these children died from a mother - child transmission while the other; Hlengiwe in grade 8 at Sdelile High School is under our care.
We tried to get RDP houses but in vain. We also tried to get grant for this child but instead we pay more money on transport and end up not getting it due to reasons not known to anybody.
Will you guys please build us a house? this one takes rain water in. Please help us have a home.
