Four (4) months pregnant Zimbabwean Young Woman Shalom Nzou Stranded in South Africa. Reaches Out to Hope for Zimbabwe Children for Help to Return Home.

09 June 2026

Plans are underway to assist a vulnerable Zimbabwean teenager stranded in South Africa to return home, courtesy of philanthropist Maam Violet Makunike.

Today, 17-year-old Shalom Nzou reached out to Maam Violet Makunike seeking urgent assistance to return to Zimbabwe after finding herself in a desperate and difficult situation.

In her message, Shalom explained that she is a Zimbabwean national originally from Harare who is currently living in Duduza, South Africa. She said both her parents have passed away and she has no immediate family support.

Shalom reported that she lost all her identification documents while in South Africa, including her passport and birth certificate, making it difficult for her to access assistance or arrange travel back to Zimbabwe.

She described her situation as extremely challenging, saying she has no stable accommodation, no source of income, and often struggles to find food. Shalom also revealed that she is four months pregnant.

According to her account, she travelled to South Africa in March this year after being taken there by relatives. However, she alleges that her stay became difficult after she resisted inappropriate advances from a family member. She says she was subsequently chased away and has since been moving between different households where she feels unsafe and unwanted.

Shalom said she sought assistance from social welfare services but was informed that documentation would be required before more comprehensive help could be provided. She added that she has no contact details for relatives in Zimbabwe because her phone and contacts were lost.

The young woman described the emotional toll of her circumstances, saying she cries almost every day and at times has felt hopeless about the future. However, she says she continues to hold on because of the unborn child she is carrying.

She also alleged that in the household where she is currently staying, she is under pressure to engage in relationships with men and fears for her safety and wellbeing.

Seeking a way home, Shalom appealed to Maam Violet Makunike and Hope for Zimbabwe Children to help her return to Zimbabwe as soon as possible. She indicated that transport costs, border-related expenses, and the absence of identity documents are major obstacles preventing her from travelling.

Hope for Zimbabwe Children is now assessing her situation and exploring ways to assist her return home safely. The organisation is also looking into the appropriate procedures for obtaining emergency travel documentation and ensuring that she receives the support and protection she requires as a vulnerable young woman and expectant mother.

Further updates will be provided as arrangements progress.

GoFundMe Investigation Clears Violet Makunike - Simbarashe Fundraiser : Stephen Buzhu (Saint TV) lies exposed .

Those Responsible for Malicious Lies to Face the Law.

24 February 2026.

Truth has prevailed following a thorough and independent review process conducted by GoFundMe.

On 24 February 2026, the GoFundMe fundraising page established for the medical care of Simbarashe was formally cleared after a rigorous review by GoFundMe’s Trust and Safety Team.

The review followed a smear campaign initiated by Saint TV, operated by Stephen Buzhu, in which false allegations were made that the fundraiser was fraudulent and that funds had been misappropriated by Violet Makunike.

Background to the Review:

On 05 February 2026, GoFundMe contacted the fundraiser after receiving reports alleging misuse of funds. These allegations claimed that:

-The fundraising appeal was fraudulent.

-All funds had been exhausted or misused.

-Violet Makunike had used the funds to build a personal residence.

-The beneficiary had not received surgery due to alleged financial mismanagement.

These allegations were entirely false, malicious, and without any factual foundation.

The Investigation Process:
The review process commenced on 05 February 2026 and concluded on 24 February 2026, spanning nearly three weeks.

During this period, GoFundMe requested comprehensive financial documentation and supporting evidence. In full cooperation, the fundraiser provided:

-Over 120 pieces of documentary evidence
-Detailed financial records dating back to January 2019
-Bank statements
-Receipts and invoices
-Proof of payments, including travel, fuel, and medical-related expenses.
-Correspondence and additional supporting documentation.

All requested information was submitted transparently, comprehensively, and without delay.

Outcome of the Review:

On 24 February 2026, GoFundMe confirmed that:

-The review was complete.

-All spending aligned with the stated purpose of the fundraiser.

-No funds had been misappropriated.

-The fundraiser remained compliant and in good standing.

The fundraising page was cleared with no issues.

Significance of the Outcome:

This outcome conclusively disproves the allegations made by Stephen Buzhu and his associates.

The fundraiser, established in 2019, continues to retain funds in its account, supported by detailed and consistent financial records demonstrating responsible stewardship.

The claims that funds were “finished” or used to build a private residence have been exposed as entirely baseless fabrications, with no credible evidence ever produced.

This independent verification significantly strengthens HFZC’s position in the ongoing defamation proceedings.

How the Smear Campaign Unfolded:

On 05 February 2026, Stephen Buzhu, through Saint TV, contacted Violet Makunike via WhatsApp message and subsequently via a call.

During the conversation, Stephen proposed collaboration to raise funds for Simbarashe. Violet welcomed publicity support but made it clear that an established GoFundMe fundraiser was already in place.

Stephen requested that both his phone number and Violet’s number be published on the Saint TV Facebook platform to solicit direct donations outside the GoFundMe structure.

Violet declined, insisting that all support be directed through the existing GoFundMe platform to ensure transparency and accountability.

The discussion became tense when she resisted what she perceived as controlling and inappropriate demands. Shortly thereafter, Stephen Buzhu terminated the call.

Within hours, Saint TV began publishing allegations claiming:

-That all GoFundMe funds had been misappropriated.

-That the funds were the reason surgery had not occurred
That Violet had built a personal residence using charitable funds.

These claims triggered widespread online backlash from individuals who relied on the Saint TV narrative without independent verification.

Notably, Violet Makunike had no prior relationship with Stephen Buzhu before 05 February 2026.

Violet Makunike’s
Position:

Violet Makunike, affectionately known as “Tete Vee” or “Sisi Vee,” has been engaged in humanitarian and charitable work since 2005.
She welcomes the outcome of the GoFundMe review as clear and independent confirmation of her longstanding commitment to:
-Integrity
-Transparency
-Accountability.

Next Steps:

Following the malicious smear campaign and sustained cyber harassment, legal action is now being pursued against those responsible for publishing and disseminating defamatory falsehoods.

The outcome of the GoFundMe Trust and Safety review stands as independent verification that:

-The fundraiser is legitimate.

-Funds have been properly managed.

-No misappropriation has occurred.

The allegations were false and malicious.

Conclusion:

Truth has prevailed through a thorough and independent verification process.
Those who chose to spread falsehoods, damage reputations, and undermine a humanitarian cause will now face the consequences under the law.

Congratulations are in order.

Violet Makunike

Copied : Video - Stephen Buzhu ( Saint TV) has been served the defamation lawsuit letter directly today on 28 May 2026 over malicious lies

28 May 2026

Next step : Gumbo and associates lawyers are now proceeding with court summons.

Mr Stephen Buzhu is seen on video in a white car being handed the letter by a representative from Gumbo and associates legal practitioners. He retained his copy and refused to sign stating that he already received the first letter left at his house with person who was present at his house on 25 February 2026.

The second attempt to serve the letter on 28 May 2026 was intiated with the understanding that maybe he did not receive the first letter. Stephen is heard in today's video confirming that he received the first letter. So now he has received both letters. Today he refused to sign the letter and retained his copy.

Saint TV Stephen Buzhu Hit with US$700,000 Defamation Claim

25 February 2026

A major defamation lawsuit has been formally initiated against Stephen Buzhu of Saint TV following legal action by Violet Makunike and Hope for Zimbabwe Children Trust through their legal representatives Gumbo and associates.

The claim arises from allegations reportedly made by Mr Buzhu asserting that Violet Makunike converted GoFundMe proceeds raised for Simbarashe Dande to personal use and used the funds to construct a private residence. The plaintiffs categorically deny these allegations and describe them as malicious, false, and gravely defamatory.

INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION:

On 05 February 2026 following reports arising from his publications, the GoFundMe Trust and Safety Team conducted the fundraiser and initiated an internal investigation. On 24 February 2026 the team concluded the formal investigation and confirmed that no wrongdoing had occurred. The campaign was found to be fully compliant and properly administered.

Despite this independent verification, Stephen Buzhu failed to retract his statements or issue an apology.

Instead, he continued to publish and amplify defamatory content, including:

1.Endorsing and repeating false claims from third parties;

2.Suggesting criminal conduct and the prospect of arrests;

3.Implying that medical treatment was being deliberately withheld;

4.Encouraging or engaging in coordinated harassment and cyberbullying;

5.Misrepresenting the role of others to undermine Ms Makunike’s contributions;

6.Issuing statements calculated to create fear, suspicion, and public alarm; and

7.Persisting with defamatory insinuations even after the campaign had been formally cleared.

This pattern of conduct constitutes a sustained and deliberate campaign of defamation, harassment, and misinformation.

The GoFundMe campaign was independently reviewed and unequivocally cleared of any wrongdoing , thus his continued publication of disproven allegations, in the face of verified findings, demonstrates a wilful disregard for the truth and reinforces a clear inference of malice.

The total damages being demanded amount to US$700,000, broken down as follows:

US$500,000 in favour of Hope for Zimbabwe Children Trust and

US$200,000 in favour of Violet Makunike personally.

Cease and Desist Letter – Formal Demands:

On 25 February 2026, the plaintiffs’ lawyer served a comprehensive Cease and Desist Letter upon Mr Buzhu outlining specific remedial demands.

The letter requires that Mr Buzhu:

-Immediately cease and desist from publishing or sharing any further defamatory material concerning the plaintiffs.

-Remove all offending videos, posts, and comments from all digital platforms, including but not limited to Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp, and any other platform under his control.

-Publish a full, unconditional, and unequivocal public retraction and apology, with the same prominence as the original defamatory statements.

-Post the apology and retraction every morning for fourteen (14) consecutive days, without deleting any of the posts.

-Pin the apology and retraction for a continuous period of fourteen (14) days on the Facebook platform “Saint TV” and on every platform where the alleged defamatory statements were published.

Pay damages as follows:

US$200,000 is being claimed by Violet Makunike in her personal capacity for reputational harm, emotional distress, and damage to her professional standing.

US$500,000 is being claimed by Hope for Zimbabwe Children Trust for institutional reputational injury, loss of public trust and confidence, and financial prejudice.

10% collection commission on all claimed amounts.

Provide a written undertaking that he will refrain from any further defamatory or injurious statements concerning the plaintiffs.

The letter further states that failure to comply fully within the stipulated timeframe and demands will result in immediate legal proceedings without further notice.

The plaintiffs intend to seek:

The full claimed sums,
Aggravated damages,
and all other appropriate relief the court may deem just.

Legal Position:
The plaintiffs argue that the allegations amount to serious imputations of fraud and dishonesty.

Under Zimbabwean civil law, such statements — if false and published to third parties — constitute actionable defamation, particularly where they injure professional and institutional reputation.

Hope for Zimbabwe Children Trust maintains that its humanitarian operations depend on public trust and confidence, and that allegations of financial misconduct pose existential risks to charitable sustainability.

Awaiting Response:
As of publication, there has been no formal public response from Stephen Buzhu or Saint TV.

The matter is poised to proceed through the courts should the demands set out in the cease and desist letter not be fully satisfied within the prescribed period.

Mutare twin brother , Tendekai Russel Sibanda (42) snatches HIV positive woman Lizzie Nyaradzo Muyambo (44) from twin brother , Tendai Sibanda (42).

July 2024.

On Saturday 6 July 2024 a 42 years old Dangamvura man, Tendai Sibanda was contemplating taking his own life after catching his twin brother Tendekai Sibanda in an uncompromising position with his long term partner 44 years old Lizzie Nyaradzo Muyambo.

*The war rages*
Spears are out between the two Sibanda identical twin brothers over the two times divorcee Lizzie Nyaradzo Muyambo who is a mother to a 22 year old son studying in Poland.

The 42 year old twin brother , Tendekai is a single father to a 20 year old son and another son having impregnated two local women who have looked after their children single handedly since birth.

Tendekai is currently in Mutare and resides in the high density area of Dangamvura. He recently moved from the house he was sharing with his twin brother , Tendai following the conflict resulting from the illicit affair he is having with Tendai's partner.

Some members of the community believe that Tendekai is involved in some kind of rituals whereby he has to engage in some sexual activity with his brother's partner.His behaviour is not making sense to anyone in the close knit conservative community and many people are in shock.

Tendekai is alleged to have snatched his twin brother's partner Lizzie Nyaradzo Mlambo (44) who claims to run a cake baking and samoosa business from home in the area amid fears of the woman spreading HIV knowingly.

The twin brothers were sharing a house and it is during this time that Tendekai developed an eye for Tendekai's wife in waiting.

Tendekai is said to be a single senior bachelor of loose morals who hops from one woman to the other in search of sexual gratification.He has an eye for women who look after him. He recently relocated from South Africa to Zimbabwe after a failed relationship with a Zimbabwean woman in South Africa called Chipo. He impregnated Chipo twice, unfortunately the first baby passed away a few weeks after birth due to acute respiratory problems. The second pregnancy in February this year resulted in a miscarriage.

While in South Africa he was being looked after by Chipo . The relationship broke down after Chipo caught Tendekai cheating with a South African woman called Thabisile.

Lizzie is a well known HIV positive woman who is in the habit of spreading HIV knowingly and stays in the N section in Dangamvura.

A keen lawn tennis player who attended secondary school at Mutare girls high , she is well known for changing men and frequenting pubs in the area.

Further investigations reveal that in 2009 Lizzie was in love with an Archie Chibvuri (RIP) who resided in the P section of Dangamvura. Archie is said to have succumbed to AIDS around 2009.

Prior to that Lizzie was married to a Derek. The marriage broke down and while Derek was at worked Lizzie took all the property in the house and went to live with her mother in the N section . This was prior to the relationship with Tendai.

Tendekai and Lizzie who are not formally employed would use every opportunity when Tendai was away to engage in sexual activity in the house Tendai was sharing with Tendekai.

In May 2024 , Tendai caught the cheaters pants down locked in Tendekai's bedroom after Tendai returned home unexpectadly. Lizzie was naked on Tendekai's bed . Tendekai refused to open the door and lied that he could not find the door keys. Tendai had to break the back door to gain entry into the house.When he challenged the love birds Lizzie lied that she was just in Tendekai's bedroom for a chat and had not engaged in sexual activity with him as she was also on her monthly periods which was not true according to Tendai.

The two cheaters would also meet at a relative's place in the Dangamvura N area for their sexcapades.

*Love meetings at Wadzanai's place*

They would also meet at Tendai's cousin's place a divorcee called Wadzanai Mago. The 34 year old woman who is currently a bar maid at JJ bar in Dangamvura would entertain the cheaters who would also spend nights at her house merry making. The bar maid who was supposed to play the auntie role and save Tendai's relationship turned out to be the auntie from hell.

The lovebirds continued to see each other and whenever Lizzie was away from home she would switch off her mobile phone while attending to Tendekai's sexual appetite after which she would also attend to Tendai's sexual needs.

*The funeral*
In May 2024, Lizzie's sister Chipo passed away in a car accident at Christmas pass on her way to Harare. During her funeral Tendekai and Lizzie were caught kissing in a car by Tendai's friend.

Following the scene on Saturday , on Wednesday 10 July 2024 , Lizzie , Tendekai , Costa ( relative to Lizzie) and Keith ( relative to Lizzie) went to Tendai's place and violently threatened him and took Lizzie's items.

Since that day Tendai does not know where his brother is now staying with his wife to be. However , rumour has it that Tendekai and Lizzie are now lodging a room in the N section near where Lizzie's mother lives.
