Ayanda Mtshali says she has been a tenant there for three years.

 

"The situation is really bad. I'm looking after my mother and three siblings with the little I have been getting for my business. 

 

"I have been requesting donations, but they are not sufficient. I am currently doing house calls in the meantime, while I am still searching for another place to rent."
