“I always heard people talking about rights to do this, a right for that, but at the same time, I did not see those rights being afforded to the people in my community. Some spoke about law-abiding citizens whilst I witnessed crime in my community on a daily basis. This intrigued me, so I wanted to know more about this whole law thing; that’s how the whole thing started.”

“grew up in a shack. I lacked school shoes and uniforms at times. I went to school without money because my parents couldn’t afford it. Even on those days that they had money, they never gave it to me, because they knew they wouldn’t have it every day, and that on days they couldn’t give it to me as a child I wouldn’t understand.
