However, her fans and supporters have reassured her.

“Seeing all the love, even from the recent project Losing Lerato 2. Winning a Royalty Soapie Award was on another level because I then get shocked and say, really, I can act,” she joked.

Nefisa said everyone must go for what they want to do.

“The sky is the limit, and nothing can stand in your way. If God says this is your future and your destiny, who’s the person next door to say anything?Nefisa played Lerato on the Netflix’s movie Losing Lerato and said she had fun shooting it.

“That was completely removed from me as Nefisa, so there were a lot of challenges that were so much fun to dibble into as an actress. The chemistry on set was amazing, and the people were friendly,” she said.

Nefisa said she started acting because many of her family members were already in the industry.

“I was also an expressive child who was bubbly, and it only made sense to be in the industry.”

Velaphi Mdletshe (53) from Mandeni is urgently seeking legal assistance following a car accident that occurred on December 24, 2022. The vehicle involved in the accident was reportedly driven by iLembe Municipality Mayor Thobani Shandu. Mdletshe’s efforts to register his injuries with the Road Accident Fund (RAF) have been met with challenges due to conflicting statements published on the day of the incident. This has left Mdletshe in a difficult position, unable to access the compensation he believes he is entitled to.

Conflicting Statements Create Legal Hurdles
Mdletshe asserts that Mayor Shandu’s account of the incident is inaccurate. According to Mdletshe, the mayor claimed that his brother was driving the car at the time of the accident. However, Mdletshe insists that he clearly saw Mayor Shandu behind the wheel, accompanied by a friend who is a police officer. This discrepancy has created a significant barrier for Mdletshe in his quest to register his claim with the RAF.

 

Mdletshe’s case highlights a common issue faced by many road accident victims in South Africa—navigating the complexities of the RAF claims process. The RAF is a state insurer that compensates individuals injured in road accidents, provided they can prove that the accident was not entirely their fault. However, when the facts of an accident are disputed, as in Mdletshe’s case, the process can become complicated and drawn out.

Consequences of the Accident! Misinformation make his Road Accident Fund complex
The consequences of the accident have been severe for Mdletshe. Not only did he lose his vehicle, but he also sustained significant injuries that required medical intervention. Mdletshe reveals that he suffered a serious leg injury, which necessitated the insertion of a metal implant. This injury has had a lasting impact on his quality of life and his ability to work, further compounding his difficulties.

Despite the severity of his injuries, Mdletshe claims that Mayor Shandu only provided his family with R1,000 to cover his initial hospital expenses. This amount, according to Mdletshe, is grossly inadequate given the extent of his injuries and the ongoing medical treatment he requires. Mdletshe’s situation underscores the challenges faced by road accident victims in securing adequate compensation for their injuries, especially when powerful individuals are involved.

Mayor’s Office Silent on the Matter
Attempts to get a comment from Mayor Shandu have been unsuccessful. When contacted, the mayor’s office declined to respond to the allegations, leaving Mdletshe’s claims unaddressed. This silence has only added to Mdletshe’s frustration and sense of injustice.

Mdletshe is now seeking legal assistance to help him navigate the complexities of the RAF claims process and hold those responsible for the accident accountable. His case serves as a reminder of the importance of accurate and honest reporting in the aftermath of road accidents, especially when the truth can have a significant impact on a victim’s ability to access justice and compensation.

Road to Justice
As Mdletshe continues his search for legal assistance, his story brings to light the challenges many South Africans face in similar situations. The RAF was established to protect and compensate road accident victims, but when the facts are disputed, the path to justice can be fraught with difficulties. Mdletshe’s determination to seek the truth and secure the compensation he deserves is a testament to the resilience of road accident victims who refuse to be silenced

Vuyokazi Nguqu, better known as Vovo from the popular reality TV show Short and Sweet, is devastated after learning that the police have allegedly closed the docket on her cellphone theft case. The Cape Town-based reality TV star, who has captured the hearts of many viewers, now finds herself questioning the very system she trusted to deliver justice.

 

 

 

 

The Unexpected SMS
Vuyokazi, who resides in Cape Town, revealed that she received an unexpected SMS from the Kleinvlei police station informing her that the case had been closed. The message, which also instructed her not to reply, left her feeling helpless and ignored by the law enforcement authorities.

“I’m so sad. I can’t even speak that much. I’ve been let down by the law. I don’t know where else to go,” said Vuyokazi Nguqu. This incident has left her not only without her stolen cellphone but also disillusioned with the legal process meant to protect her rights.

The Incident
The theft reportedly occurred when Vuyokazi was with her neighbors and boyfriend. According to her account, her cellphone was stolen, prompting her to seek assistance from the police. However, instead of receiving immediate help, she claimed the officers advised her to go and look for the suspect herself before they could officially open a case.

This shocking instruction left Vuyokazi feeling unsupported in her time of need, and now, with the case allegedly being closed, her frustration has only deepened.

Public Outcry and Lack of Justice
The closure of the case has sparked a discussion on social media, with many expressing their disappointment over how the situation was handled. Supporters of Vuyokazi Nguqu are questioning why the police would close the case without proper investigation, especially given the clear distress the reality star has expressed.

As a beloved figure on Short and Sweet, Vovo’s ordeal has resonated with many who feel that justice has not been served. The incident sheds light on the challenges ordinary citizens face when seeking justice and the emotional toll it can take on victims when the system appears to fail them.

What’s Next for Vuyokazi?
Despite her heartbreak, Vuyokazi Nguqu remains determined to find a resolution. However, she is uncertain of her next steps after being advised not to respond to the SMS from the police. Her story serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of transparency and support in legal matters.

In a time when the public increasingly scrutinizes the effectiveness of law enforcement, Vuyokazi’s experience is a call to action for greater accountability and responsiveness from those tasked with upholding the law.

For now, Vuyokazi Nguqu continues to navigate her emotions and the aftermath of her case’s closure, hoping for some form of justice, even if it comes from raising awareness about her plight
