Nayager, who has nominated her colleague Bheki Mdluli.
Bheki lost everything due to the KZN Floods.
Have a listen to Part 1 of this tragic story:

As a delivery driver, he tries to make ends meet by giving what he earns to his family.
Bheki earns less than R9,000 per month. With that amount, he has to support his wife, children, his mum, and sisters.
As the sole bread winner of his family, things are incredibly tough.
Bheki has been working tirelessly to rebuild but cannot do this due to lack of finances.
After hearing this extraordinary story, many people were moved and wanted to help out Bheki to finally rebuild his home.
In came Pearl Zwane, who is the general manager at Grand Gaming KZN Slots, to help where they can.
