The plight of four siblings from Alexandra, known locally as the Janda siblings, has sparked widespread concern after their dire living conditions were highlighted on Alex Reporter (18 September 2025).
The siblings — Suyabulela, Nkosinathi, Sipho, and Wand — live at 16 Selbourne under harsh circumstances that have drawn sympathy from the community and beyond. Their story recently touched reality TV star Black Cat Girl, real name Mathapelo Kanyane (33), who is also known for her relationship with popular musician Mixon “Tsekeleke” Tholo (40).
Kanyane visited the family with friends, spending time with the siblings and donating food parcels. She also pledged to assist them in obtaining identity documents and securing safer accommodation.
The Janda siblings’ father is unemployed and struggles with alcoholism. Their eldest brother lives with untreated mental illness, while one sibling washes cars to survive. The youngest, aged 22, is also unemployed.
The family’s home is in a dilapidated state, with leaking roofs and broken doors that leave them exposed to rain, crime, and freezing nights. Neighbours have described their living conditions as both “heartbreaking” and “unsafe.”
Community members and well-wishers are urged to lend support. Those willing to help can contact the siblings directly on WhatsApp at 079 106 3177.
