Sister’s Keeper Movement march against Ntuthuko Shoba’s bail application
The march was triggered by a voice note allegedly sent by Shoba's mother
Ahead of the alleged mastermind behind Tshegofatso Pule’s murder, Ntuthuko Shoba’s bail application verdict, set to take place this Friday, March 5, an organisation for women, Sister’s Keeper Movement, held a peaceful march this past Sunday in Meadowlands in memory of Tshegofatso Pule and her unborn child, to request the state not to grant Shoba bail.
Dressed in black and pink T-shirts they marched through the streets of Meadowland demonstrating their frustrations regarding Pule’s murder case.
According to Olebogeng Moemisi, founder and chairperson of the Sister’s Keeper Movement, the march was triggered by a voice note allegedly sent by Shoba’s mother last year a few days after Pule was buried thanking church members for their prayers and giving them updates on the case.

“The voice note made us angry, so we marched through the streets of Meadowlands, demonstrating our frustrations. We stopped at Shoba’s mom’s church, a Methodist church in Meadowlands Zone 7, the same church the late icon Winnie Mandela was part of. We played the voice note so that the church members can hear that she was praising them for praying for the freedom of a perpetrator. We also wanted to reach out to mothers who are protecting their children who are perpetrators of crime,” said Moemisi.
Another stop was made at Shoba’s father’s place as well as his favourite hangout spot, where he used to chill with his friends.
Pule was murdered by Muzikayise Malephane in June last year. He pleaded guilty on February 19 to her murder and was sentenced to 20 years in prison. He told the South Gauteng High Court that he had been offered R70 000 by Shoba to murder Pule.
