SABC News Reporter Calvin Dludla speaks to the father of 10-year-old girl Lesedi Maaboi from Alexandra township who died after allegedly eating snacks from a local spaza shop in the area.
According to the father Joshua Maaboi, at about 7pm, his late child came into the house holding snacks. She asked her mother to smell the snacks, and the mother then confirmed that they had a peculiar smell.
The last born also had a packet. She took the snacks and put them in the bin. She complained about having stomach cramps and the children later also complained about stomach cramps.
They were rushed to the Maskhane clinic where they attempted to assist the child but she later died.

This Country needs a president like Trump
What is the problem with us South Africans the problem is manufacturers we need to go there and check what is really going on there in Spazas they don't make and pack these things this could happen even in our fellow South Africans who owns Spazas I know all dumbkop won't understand my comment
South Africa is under attack
Something is not right at all
Africa need to be redeemed
Police take bribes from this Pakistan nationals and give little concern to the kids.
Calvin you are a sh**# reporter. Condolences to the Famaly 🙏.
Why buy from them the power is in your hands if you don’t support them they have to close down
Why is South Africa allowing toxic products to be sold to it's citizens? The producers of these products sold to mainly black people should not be allowed to continue operating. ALL The families affected should be compensated, and the company fined heavily. This type of thing doesn't happen in the EU because they are very strict about the health of their citizens. South Africa government, both provincial and national stop failing your primary population.
are the chips Simba or Zimba? If its Simba chips then the company could have batches that are contaminated.
huh iz it your first time
CLOSE THESE SPAZA SHOPS
Same of getting paid from owner of shoprit spar etc,,
Did the president say anything about all this massacre of kids happening in the country?
If u see in townships..parents give kidz money..1st place they run 2 is spaza..u sometimes find 6 spazas in close radius of each other..
Then its almost as if the kidz have an addiction everywhere u looks u will see these packets spreaded on the streets..the packaging cannot be recycled..
As mentioned..find the source..manufacturer..should be shut down..
Pleaseee
Someone is behind this to prove apoint because you can't kill your customers open your eyes guys you can hate spaza owners but that's not the solution
The lady is telling the truth .. problem ayikho spaza …umphathi kwawona ne drama kushisa spaza kusizani..
Why ningabuki ama expired date bakwethu if isusiwe lahla leyonto
I sympathize with the people who have lost their children .but why r the people still buying from these people
Y,only children?
Someone behind and blaming the my friend so heartbreaking u must find the real cause than blaming innocent my friends whilst the killer is enjoying the killings
This thing is politically motivated. How come only children? Do adults not eat it too? The DA must be questioned! They are determined to remove the ANC, EFF, Action SA coalition and will do anything. Mark my words, the DA is somehow involved! They must be looked into and questioned!
Government need to act fast not wait for something bad
Condolences to loss of an innocent child
This lady who is suspecting the Manufacturer of chips is just on Point. Retailers may not have any hand in these tragedies
It's a set up. And a diverting of real issues
The foreigners normally open illegal factories whereby they manufacture stuff themselves, that's why their prices are always below than normal prices
SURELY. this is news ??were is the English😂😂Realy.
I think abo my friend are a threat to our South African businesses so they decided to tarnish their shops knowing that we will say it's the foreigners because that is what we want to hear
I think yourl must tell us what kind of snacks so tht pple wil knw
And also we must stop giving our children money, very dangerous 'cos children just buy,we must buy everything for them plz and to the rite stores, like shoprite
Lord Jesus. I stretch my hand over your children 's life. Heal them Lord Jesus
I agree with you sis.
Sorry for lost your love one , may soul of that child rest in peace
And the president is quiet.,
