BOPHELONG.- Nhlapo has no Identity book, and because of this can not find a job, and none of her children have birth certificates. The situation has tied her hands as she can’t apply for their social grants.

She blames her parents who died before they applied for her birth certificate. The sad part now is that her relatives want her out of her parents’ RDP house in Extension 17, Bophelong. The relatives have since taken her parents house’s tittle deed. They apparently want her, and the children out of the house, roaming the streets.

“My mother died around 1990, and my father Simon Stompie Nhlapo died in 2002 in Zone 14 Sebokeng. The issue is about the ownership of the house,” she said adding that at her children’s schoold she has been told to ‘hurry up’ and make proper documents for them.

Nhlapo was recently helped by good Samaritans who heared her story on local radio station, Lekoa FM and donated food and clothing to her and the children. One of the good Samaritans, Poppy Alinah Khan from Henley on Klip, of Sweetsmell from Heaven Soup said that she became sad when she heared about Nhlapo’s situation.
