PROCESS WORK 
Formerly known as Lindiwe, the Township of ZWEZWE was formerly renowned for its love of toying with plans and utilizing them to cure people. People frequently seek her out when they are ill since she is skilled at curing them. They all admired her. She was anticipating to give birth one day when she was carrying a girl. She made the decision to go for a walk and found a new plant. She takes the plant to investigate it, but while doing so she accidentally tastes the plant.
She gave birth to a girl the next day, after which she learned she possessed magic. When her mother was ill at this particular period, they shared a little home. After that day, the residents of ZweZwe Town named Lindiwe the Queen of the Town, and she uses her magic to heal the mother. Everything was OK in the town after that, and people continued to enjoy better lives.
No one was able to cure Lindiwe's illness, and in the end, the illness caused her death. After that, the town changed, and people became more aggressive against one another. This is when things started to become ironic, and people started robbing other people's shops. I want to show how the Town was after the passing of the Lindiwe, how things were before the angel arrived from the Town.
In the Frame of the page, we see boys who are Toro and smoke they are brothers coming from the market. That's where they are making a living by selling fruit but people of the Town don't buy from them because the things that they sell are stolen goods. The two love football very much.
