"Mkhulu Thabethe had been staying in a dilapidated shack with no windows and doors for over 30 years. Mkhulu’s shack had no electricity, water and most importantly he did not have a toilet and therefore used the neighbouring tavern's toilet. Today we gifted him with a new home."

BI Phakathi helps another pure soul in need, Mzansi stans: "God bless you Mr Phakathi"

Previously, Briefly News reported that a good samaritan shared with his 6.3 million Facebook followers the act of charity of helping a fellow Saffa in need with the hopes of inspiring the nation.

BI Phakathi, a motivational speaker, filmmaker and life coach, came across a stranger that we later learned was named Sipho who collected recyclable materials to sell for him to survive the hardships of living on the streets.

Sipho was walking along the roadside when Phakathi asked how he was and what he was doing to which Sipho said with an ear-to-ear smile that he was good, however, he went into brief detail about him being homeless and hungry.
