Terminal ill Innocent Sibanda is appealling for financial help to return to Zimbabwe from South Africa where he has been living since early 90s.

Writing on Facebook, Ezra Sibanda said Innocent needs to be taken to his home in Tsholotsho to spend his last days as doctors said his life can’t be saved.

Sibanda is under the care of her desperate sister Irene Sibanda who is not permanently employed in SA and also struggling to make ends meet.

She is trying to raise about R5000 which is a balance needed to hire a car to carry his brother home.

Below is what Ezra wrote.

Tsholotsho Community and the entire Zimbabwean Community in South Africa and elsewhere, this is a plea to all of you to help our terminal ill brother Innocent Sibanda. He needs to be taken to his home in Tsholotsho to spend his last days as doctors said his life can’t be saved. As we speak his desperate sister Irene Sibanda who is not permanently employed in SA and also struggling to make ends meet is trying to raise about R5000 which is a balance needed to hire a car to carry his brother home.

Innocent came to Johannesburg early 90s and in 1995 disappeared and was presumed dead. He was discovered recently at a Capetown hospital where he has been admitted for the last 4 years, he is paralysed. The sister managed to identity him and the hospital asked her to take him home because they wouldn’t help him any more. Well wishers and people from the sister’s church managed to raise money to transport the bedridden Innocent to Johannesburg. They don’t have enough money to transport him to Sipepa area of Tsholotsho, Zimbabwe. He is still in Johannesburg in a temporary accommodation supplied by a well-wisher and his condition deteriorating fast.

This is an urgent matter good people, please let’s take our brother home before its too late. The sister is pleading with anyone who can help and donate money or pay Malayitsha direct to urgently take his brother home. R5000 is the money needed to take Inno home. You can send cash direct or E-Wallet to the sister Irene on 0832883128
