Five children have died after allegedly consuming snacks purchased from a spaza shop in Naledi, Soweto.
The children, aged between six and 10, were rushed to hospital after displaying worrying symptoms of vomiting and being unable to talk or eat.
The families of five children who died on Sunday after allegedly consuming chips from a local spaza shop in Naledi, Soweto, are looking for closure.
Speaking to the publication, Dumisani Manisela, the father of seven-year-old Zinhle Maama who died yesterday afternoon, explains the symptoms his daughter displayed.
“She came to the house she had diarrhoea, vomiting, shaking. I tried to give her milk, but I could see that she was in pain, she was vomiting, and she couldn’t speak. Then we quickly rushed her to the hospital they told us she passed.”
At least one of the children survived and is in intensive care at a private hospital in Soweto.
Last year, two boys died after allegedly consuming something bought from a spaza shop in the same area.
