April 29, 2020, Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa: Sabonjel Zhanje 21 a Zimbabwean National living in Itireleng Squatter Camp Pretoria South Africa don't have any food as she stand at her kitchen. I'm Sabonjel Zhanje 21 a Zimbabwean National came to South Africa since 3 years for better future and I'm unemployed living with two children and we are really struggling for food as we don't get Covid 19 relief fund like food hampers or the unemployment money from South African Government unless like many South Africans are getting it because we are foreign nationals and there are no any measures which has been taken so far neither by South African Government nor Zimbabwean Government to save us from this lock down. I don't have my husband and I got two kids. My mother who works as a House maid in Pretoria west, South Africa also not working since the lock down started and it is really difficult to feed my two children, I don't have enough food. I can starve myself but I can't see my two children who are 3 and 5 years old to starve. We need help and there are Social development organizations who are only giving out hampers that got South African ID so we don't get anything from them. I‘m begging for food from people to save my two children because without food, my children will die. If I think to go back to my country then also I can't as South African borders are closed and there is no way out. I'm really stuck in between death and life and don't know what to do. I beg please save my children as we are all starving here. I request to South African Government or Zimbabwean Govt., please take care of us, we are all human otherwise we will die.
