LIMPOPO – Learners and teachers from Thengwe Secondary School in Mutale are in mourning after they lost one of their own.
A teacher, Tshifhiwa Kindwa was killed in a motor vehicle accident in Makondi Shadani village last Thursday.
According to the police’s Brig Motlafela Mojapelo, the police in Thohoyandou are investigating two cases of culpable homicide following a collision between a minibus and a bakkie.
Confirming the two deaths, he said it was reported that the minibus overturned on the Makonde-Tshilamba road, and that police investigations continue.
Netshilidi’s husband, Fhatuwani Mutuvhi, said he was saddened about his wife’s death, which has now left him as the sole breadwinner. “We urge law enforcement agencies to harshly deal with and prosecute drivers who act recklessly on public roads. They must know they have people in those vehicles. My children lost their mother.”
A cleaner from the Vhembe TVET College’s Thengwe campus, Luvhengo Sharon Netshilindi also died in the same incident. Netshilindi was buried in the Mbilwi-Makanga graveyard on Saturday and Kwinda was also buried over the weekend, in Dididi.
