By Paola Totaro CAPE TOWN (Thomson Reuters Foundation) – Siphesihle Mbango was just six years old when her friend, Asenathi, begged her to go with her to the toilet then ran outside alone – and was never seen again.

Part of Khayelitsha, one of the world&039;s five biggest slums, Endlovini is home to an estimated 20,000 people who share just 380 or so communal toilets.
