"Thank you for all your support. The fight to get my South African passport renewed has finally been won! This was a long road for something so simple. All South Africans who hold dual citizenship should not be punished for the cruel events that led us here in the first place. How vulnerable are all ordinary people when our fate is determined by authorities who have the power to threaten our safety and security? Thank you for speaking out with me. It seems we were heard by Home Affairs in South Africa, and this is opening a dialogue at the government level to revisit a process that is clearly flawed. Thank you again for making a stand. Yet another confirmation that if we do not stand up for our human rights, no one else will. Thank you, South Africa, for leading the way. Wishing all people everywhere peace, safety, and security for you and your loved ones," she wrote.
