Sonke is deeply saddened to learn of the brutal murder of Eastern Cape’s woman traditional leader mam’Nogcinile Mtirara, who was allegedly assassinated at Mqhekezweni Great Place in the Bityi administrative area, earlier this week. Mtirara was a relative of former president Nelson Mandela and the granddaughter-in-law of AbaThembu king Jongintaba Mtirara. This brutal killing takes place in a province where there is a spike in gun related murders.
It is not yet clear as to the motive or the persons involved in this dastardly act. Sonke extends its deepest condolences to the royal family of Mqhekezweni and the community.
