Famous South African actress Nandi Nyembe continues waiting for fundraising money that was supposed to help her financial troubles. The beloved star from hit shows like Yizo Yizo and Zone 14 says she feels disappointed about the delay. Fans across the country donated cash after watching her emotional video plea for assistance back in April. People sent money straight to her bank account after hearing about her struggles.
A special fundraising event took place at Disoufeng in Soweto during April to raise support for the veteran performer. The actress recently shared her frustration with Sunday World about the situation. She explained that winter has arrived and she desperately needs a heater and other basic items. The delay appears connected to administrative issues with the Gauteng Film Commission.
Nyembe discovered that the Gauteng Film Commission must approve her access to the donated funds. She had no idea about this requirement when the fundraising began. The actress also mentioned that Sports Minister Gayton McKenzie gave her R20,000 during April. However, he promised to visit her home and has not done that either. The delay continues to cause hardship for the entertainment industry veteran.
