However, she was sacked for crying too loudly at the residence, and that made her unhappy.
"I am here with the intention that my mother is dead, so I am coming to help with what I do for others. Someone just walked up to me and asked me to leave the house because they said I was making noise."
The elderly woman clad in white said she was going to her house to continue crying there.
"So I am going to cry in my house. Nobody came to call me. I came here because of what the woman has done for me."
