It makes me think of a place called Duduza.
One is a town west of Nigel (in itself one of the most depressing places I have been to).
Duduza was created when the inhabitants of Charteston were forcibly removed in 1964, as the municipality regarded Charteston as being too close to the 'white' areas of Nigel.
When a place is created out of grief, and named Comfort. It is still a place of little comfort.

Also, I now realise that it must have been he first isiZulu word I ever heard, when my mother used to tell me to doedoe - which can only be an Afrikaans incorporation of what Zulu mothers and nannies must have said to babies.

I wish you
ubunethe
and
induduzo
