POLOKWANE – Most people who drive in Webster Street everyday probably wonder why there are so many people sitting on the side of the road.
Finding a job nowadays is a very hard thing to do and even though most of us have education backgrounds and qualifications, it is still very difficult to find one.
We spoke to one of the women, alongside many others, to find out exactly why they hang around Webster Street on a daily basis.
Linda Sekwaba, a Polokwane resident says she wakes up every single morning and stands in Webster street, hoping that a good samaritan will stop and offer her any type of job.
“It is honestly very difficult to wake up every single day not knowing what will happen today, because I have children to take care of and without any means of profit, it is very difficult and painful at times to go through this,” Linda said.
“When anyone is driving to work or to home every day, they must just sometimes look to their sides, they might just find what or who they’re looking for,” she said.
Linda says that having faith gets through her day and going back every day is one step closer to employment.
