She feels like her safety and that of her girl children is being compromised after the owner of the house she is staying in removed the windows to renovate.

Dzivhu said Gcina had defaulted on her bond payment and he purchased it legally. Gcina and her children have been living in the home for nine months since it was sold to the new owner, Dzivhu. Now Dzivhu has removed the windows and is renovating the home.

Gcina revealed on her social media that she feels unsafe and that she lives in a home without windows. She said:

I lay awake asking myself what could happen. Anyone can step into my room and do as they please.

Gcina added:

We need help, I am unemployed, I am a single mother and we don't have food. Our electricity has been cut off by this guy. We don't have resources.

Gcina said she has not had an acting job in a while and is struggling to make ends meet.

Dzivhu told the media that he has been struggling to get Gcina out of the home he bought. He said:

I offered that she rents the home for R12k and she said yes but then changed her mind. I am basically paying for her to live in my house. I took the windows out because I want to renovate the house.

He added that a lot still needs to be done to the house: “I want to fix the house, but I can't because she won't leave. The other day she brought her sangoma and prophet or whatever to do scary things to the house, and the other tenants are starting to get scared. She's looking for public sympathy at my expense. It's not good.”
