Robert & Zinhle Ngwenya Foundation Is Fighting To End Drug Abuse

The plague of Nyaope has affected many people in South Africa and some members within the communities are creating initiatives that could potentially aid the increment of individuals addicted to the drug.

Businessman Robert Ngwenya and his wife actress Zinhle have created an initiative called #NyaopeWillFall whereby various well known musicians including Sjava, Kwesta, Cassper Nyovest and others have been booked to perform at an event.

This is to urge young people to keep away from drugs.

3. Robert says they were aspired by Global Citizen to start their initiative.
4. The couple said they are setting up a rehab centre, ‘Nomaqala Home of Hope’ where Nyaope victims and those in need can get some help.
5. They are also planning to move from North West and try to cover all the other provinces in South Africa.
6. As a Foundation they are calling for the end of drug abuse and women abuse so that they can change the lives of young people in South Africa.
