On Monday evening South Africa celebrated the happy reunion of eight-year-old Abirah Dekhta, who was kidnapped on November 4 when the driver of the lift club that takes her to school was held at gunpoint, and her family.

Abirah was found alive and physically unharmed on Monday evening after police recovered her from a shack in Khayelitsha, Cape Town.

Some employers don’t want to understand when a parent says, they need to drop of their child and pick them up again. I firmly believe a mother or father must be given that chance. For safety sake!!
