“I couldn’t believe it. That young man was so strong. What a loving man.”

On his current financial situation, the actor says he survives on R1 900 monthly from the government. He says this is mostly because you can only make money in South Africa if you're actively working. He says he has not been able to pay rent and owes his landlord R45 000.

“The pension money that I survive on is not enough to buy groceries, pay for my son’s school fees, his transport and buy my diabetic medication. Last year, I had to shoot Ikhaya Labadala not feeling well because I needed the money. This year, I have not even auditioned because there are no roles for people of my age.”

SowetanLive reports that the actor has turned to social media to seek financial help and received R100 000 from the public.
