“When people are in the vicious circle of poverty, violence tends to be so rampant because these people lack the basic needs of life, where we find food, clothes, school fees, the shelter and the other things that are so important in life, and as a result the two have to disagree and from a disagreement just expect fights.”

“Last year we had registered some death over gender-based violence where this man had to murder his wife over things related to infidelity.

“We realized that some women keep quiet with their problems in homes unless they get somebody to support them, to move with them to the next level. Like for example, those Soul Sisters they say no if it means we can offer transport for you, if we can go to the court together, to the local council together – then they give these women courage to speak out.”

I also want to help those people who are in the same problem like I faced in the past and I am doing it because I feel pity to those people who are suffering like the way I could suffer that’s why I joined it and indeed we are doing the work because there are very many in this area – those people that we are helping.”
