Altha, I do not agree with this ID. The Wikipedia article does not indicate that it gows in South Africa or even Africa. The shape of the fruit is also not correct. This might be Strychnos spinosa (Groenklapper / Spiny Monkey Orange / Green Monkey Orange)

Maybe Crescentia cujete? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crescentia_cujete
