MR NGUDLE
I went to school after a long period, not going to work, because I have been a student all along under very-very difficult situations.  Such that in 1981, I had to start working in East London, even there I didn't get a permanent job I've been in and out of jobs.  In 1985 I never worked again after 1985 for seven years.
And in 1991 I discovered an advertisement from New Nation where they will - where  Khanya  College was inviting applications from students who want to enrol there and I was also lucky to be one of the students to be accepted at Khanya College.  That is now how I started to study because there it was - education there was free.  When - after I passed there I went to the University of Cape Town, I finished my degree last year.
This year I am busy with my Diploma, but now because of the pressure that I am getting from my mother who is not working, I am now forced to drop out from school, there is one of our - of my siblings who's in the college at the moment.
No-one else is working at the moment.  We are all depending on my mother's pension.  And now he - she can not afford all of us now.  Now this is why now I have to drop out and help her.  As she had said that - seeing that we didn't bury our father we would  really like to have a proper funeral just like everybody else.  But we don't really have the power to do that and the means to do that.  We would really like that if there is a way to be helped in that regard.  We would also like to be helped that - to ask that if - if the Commission can help us with the - with my siblings who are still at school.
Because now we believe that if my father was still alive, we would of been brought up just like all the other kids and got all the other privileges just like every other child who was loved by his father.
