WATCH: Cleaner catches baby in Mall
What was supposed to be just another day at work drastically changed into a miraculous event for Mall cleaner, Ms Sibongile Phiri.
Ms Phiri, who prides herself in keeping the Middelburg Mall spotless, was contacted by other staff members and was told that a shopper was unwell.
Having first aid training under her belt, Sibongile hurried to Pep to find a woman in labour.
Like a superwoman, Sibongile took charge of the situation where she settled the mother down in a storeroom and helped her through contractions.
By the time help arrived, Sibongile was holding a little bundle in her arms.
Take a look at this video footage of the little pinky after her suprising arrival.
