  1. It’s always shocking whn someone dies suddenly because the family are not psychologically prepared for the loss. Illness, especially long illness, psychologically prepares us although we may not be aware of it. It’s a terrible way to start a new yr. So how old was the late Chief Nyamphande? How long was he on the throne? Such basics are vital whn reporting such deaths.

  2. Our future generation will never forgive us for electing this visionless leader as president. He must be kicked out come 2021.

  3. Wena kange Kaizer Zulunyoko, your mind is always affected badly, not just by this chief’s demise!
