April 29, 2020, Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa: Gracious Gumbo 22 a Zimbabwean Nationality from Diepsloot Township north of Johannesburg at her tiny house with her daughter spoke about the struggle to survive for the lock down 'I was a street Vendor selling fruits in Diepsloot and when the lock down started then I closed my business. I have two children and I'm a single mother. I came from Zimbabwean two years ago and now I'm stuck here as I can't go back to my country. We are not getting food parcel because we are foreigners. Some NGOS came to our township and they asked us to make a big queue as we need to make two separate queue, there is a separate queue for Foreign nationals and for the South African nationals and before the food parcel reach to us, it's already finish because people first reach to South African nationals and then they come to us but we never got food hampers. I starve for days because there is no food at my house and there is no one in this unknown country to support us.' (Credit Image: © Manash Das/ZUMA Wire/ZUMAPRESS.com)
