“Kwayena lowo muntu ongenela ukhetho kumele akuveze ukuthi uvumelekil­e ukuthi angangenel­a ukhetho. Ukuze ungenele ukhetho kumele kube ngukuthi awukaze udonse isigwebo ngaphakath­i ejele esiyizinya­nga ezingu-12, esihambisa­na nokuthi awuvunyelw­anga ukukhokha inhlawulo. Okunye okubhekway­o ngukuthi ngabe isiphelile yini iminyaka emihlanu umuntu aqeda ukudonsa isigwebo,” kusho ushebhuri.
