Durban artists to welcome ex-convict back home
Recently, according to TshisaLIVE, Durban artists will be among other people who will be welcoming back an ex-convict, Mbuso Zulu, to the community after he gets released from prison.
It was said that a special event for Zulu would be held on Tuesday, 10 September 2024, which will tackle many issues and serve as a crime prevention event.
The event will be organised by Mbuso Zulu's organisation called Usengashintsha, which means You can still change. The organisation team told the publication that the upcoming event will feature guest speakers, panel discussion and a testimony from other former inmates:
"As our founder, Mbuso Zulu and the organisation will convene a comprehensive event tackling pressing issues like gender-based violence (GBV), crime and rehabilitation.
"The programme will feature: guest speakers and panel discussions; testimonials from former inmates; presentations on our organisation's initiatives; interactive sessions with parolees; inspirational talks from notable guests; donations of food parcels to those in need; participation from local schools and communities."
Former inmate now turned TV host Skeem GP also shared that Mbuso's goal is to inspire and value people's lives.
He said:
"Upon his release Mbuso Zulu will resume his work with renewed passion and energy, seeking collaborative opportunities to drive meaningful change in the country. His goal is to inspire and bring value to people's lives, fostering a culture of trust, growth and community engagement."
Oscar Pistorius's release undermines GBV victims
In a similar story, Briefly News reported that Women For Change slammed Oscar Pistorius's release from prison on parole.
Pistorius walked free from prison after serving half of his sentence for killing Reeva Steenkamp. The organisation's spokesperson, Bulelwa Adonis, believed that his release undermined GBV victims and showed a lack of accountability for GBV.
