Police Spokesperson who confirmed the incident in a statement on Tuesday, August 23, 2022, said the teenager identified as Promise Tjatji, from Kome village, was attacked on Saturday evening of August 20, 2022 at about 19:00,"
Speaking to Times LIVE, the deceased's uncle, Mpshe Tsatsi, said Promise already planned her future and wanted to be a doctor after completing high school.
Mpshe, who is distraught and still struggling to comprehend his niece’s death, said the teenager had been staying with his elderly mother.
He and his wife live in Polokwane, where he works. He visits the village home regularly at weekends.
"She was about to cook before she left [to go out with the boyfriend]."
He said the teenager was in grade 12 and they were planning to help her study at university. The school had recently helped her apply for a bursary.
Mphe thanked the social development department for assisting the family and Promise's schoolmates with counselling, to help them deal with the trauma.
He was disappointed the family of the alleged perpetrator had not approached them.
“We expected his family to come and say something to us in the form of apology or something, but so far no-one has come."
He said they understood that the family did not send their child to kill someone, but still expected elders to apologise as it would help them find closure.
Promise will be buried on Saturday August 27.

ReplyDeleteThe rate of Femicide is on the increase in most African countries, too bad the government is doing nothing to help women.
Aunty, men are being killed everyday, from war, riots, domestic violence, robbery attack etc.
DeleteCondemn the killing, no be to dey play victim everytime.. e no dey tire Una🙄😏
I tell you my sister, really alarming . I don't even know where e worst, Africa, Asia or those Arab😔
DeleteDante - men are being killed everyday but, at least in 90% of cases, it is by other men. Most killings of women are perpetrated by men so she is right in talking about femicide. She is talking facts not criticising men. You need to calm down a bit. Life is not some huge gender conspiracy or gender war. No be everything be fight.
DeleteGrandpa Dante, why is everything about gender fight/comparison to you?
DeleteTry to be logical in your response next time. Apart from the few domestic violence cases where men get killed by women, The men killed from War, Riot,Robbery etc , were they killed by women or your fellow men?. or I lied about the increase in Femicide even in Nigeria. Are you the government that was called upon to do something about the killings abi he dey sweet you anytime you see news of women killed by men.

So sad
ReplyDeleteWhat arguments could have brought about such hatred 💔💔💔
ReplyDeleteNothing justifies such. Hatred of females has risen sharply, especially among the youth. The toxicity against women is alarming and the results are evident for all to see. Any society that cannot respect women and maltreat them will end up cursed and barbaric. Thank God for this blog. The toxicity in the other blog against women is too bad. They are so abusive and encourage abusive treatment of women.
