Daily Sun (June 19 2013) - FOR two weeks the body of Zodwa Shange has been lying in a mortuary. But the family has TWICE postponed the funeral of their loved one . . . BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE ZODWA IS STILL ALIVE!
Both her mother, Sibongile Shange (56) and Zodwa's fiancee, Denver Palmer, are convinced Zodwa is not dead but being kept somewhere by a tokoloshe. "We live in hope that we will receive a call from the mortuary saying she has woken up," Denver (25) told Daily Sun. "All the traditional healers we have gone to assured us that Zodwa is alive and we believe them."
The family's torment began on Monday two weeks ago when 25-year-old Zodwa came home to their flat in central Durban after having forgotten her food in her workplace bathroom at Ethekwini Municipality's electricity department.
Said her mum: "She said she had called a friend at work to bring her food home for her. "But the friend said she had found the food hidden behind a toilet seat - not on the basin where Zodwa had left it. "Zodwa gave it to me but I didn't eat it," said Sibongile.
