Sechaba Shai homeless and abusing substances
According to @MDNnewss, Sechaba Shai has relapsed and is abusing crystal meth and nyaope. His mother, the late Patrick Shai’s wife, allegedly kicked him out of the house as a result of this.
Since Sechaba got kicked out of his mother Mmasechaba’s house, he makes a living by pushing supermarket trolleys at malls.
Shai’s death is the reason Sechaba is back on substances
Patrick Shai died in January 2022, and his death was ruled as suicide. Sechaba is said to be the one who found his father deceased.
He had sobered up for a year, and when his father died, Sechaba tried to stay clean, but unfortunately, in 2023, he relapsed. Sechaba also did not receive any counselling to help deal with the loss of his father in that manner.
Before Patrick took his own life, he shared with his son that he wished for him to be a respectable family man and lay off the substances.
Sechaba seeks help
When news publication ZiMoja contacted him, Sechaba pleaded for help.
"I want to be clean and go back to go back to being part of Kwanele Foundation where I was heading the office of KwaneleNziswa educating others on issues of substance abuse. Please help me before it's too late."
