Ngosuku olulandelayo ngathi ngisehla embhedeni ngezwa isiyezi ngabanjwa kwathiwa njengoba ngihlinziwe akuvumelekile ukuthi nginyakaze kulento engifakwe yona,” kutsho yena.
Uthe uma ebuza ukuthi ufakweni watshelwa ukuthi abakwazanga ukuwuthunga umhlwehlwe wafakwa ipheshi elingeke lisakhitshwa, libuhlungu kodwa uzolijwayela.

“Bangikhipha lento abangifaka yona bafaka enye bangangiphi imithi yokuthiba izinhlungu emva kokuhlinzwa kwathiwa akukho engitshiyelwe khona. Ngakusasa ngayicela kudokotela wami wanganginaka ngacela omunye ngoba ngangiphethwe layikhanda. Emva kwezinsuku ezintathu ngakhitshwa nganikwa amaphilisi angu 20 besengisizwa elinye lungu lomphakathi elingiphathela lapho lisebenza khona noma ngizithengele ekhemesi,” kutsho uMalevu.
