“Mpho was a well-known activist full of life determined and committed to working for his community. The family would like to acknowledge the continued outpouring of messages of support by the public and formations.
We appeal that at this moment, his family is afforded the time and space to reflect and reconcile on overcoming this tragedy, “said Mike Maile, family spokesperson in a statement.
