A woman who had a phone belonging to the man who died wanted to open the device, but she did not know how to unlock it because it was through face recognition. To open the device, the owner has to open the eyes, and it does not open from anyone else but the owner. She went to the man who was lying in the casket or coffin and then opened his eyes, trying to unload the device. That was a bold move, considering that people were watching what she was doing.
Some people would not allow it. Babes Wodumo had managed to unlock her husband’s phone, then posted on social media with it. People were surprised by the post because Mampintsha had died, but it was her wife. Many people have been wondering if she will find something that is not pleasing, and it could be about cheating. With Babes Wodumo, it was reported on social media that her husband Mampintsha was cheating with another musician from Limpopo, Makhadzi.
As for the lady going to that extent to try to open his phone, she surely wants to know what is inside the device and what was kept from many people knowing about the information. She is surely one of them, and he did not want her to be aware of what is kept on the device. Sometimes it would be the best option because you may find that there is something he has that would not have been claimed if his device was not unlocked.
Maybe there is some inheritance that she or the entire family will get. But on the other side, it would be a bad decision to find that he was cheating or keeping something done privately. People are keeping confidential information on their mobile devices, and the moment you are able to access it, you get their private information.
We live in a time where information is kept digitally and is not found on hard copies only. As much as you are aware that some day you will die, there is information that you should not keep hidden or that should be accessible in the family. You would not keep that information scrutinized or heavily protected, and no one in the family knew how to get it. Searching for someone’s phone may bring heartbreak.
