“I got a call not long after the accident happened. I fled my house and made a dash towards the site, where I saw Moerane pinned under the shattered remains of her automobile. The person that he was led him to inquire, “Why did you arrive so late?” I informed him that it took me around ten minutes to complete. And he pleaded with them, “Get me out of this automobile; get me out of here!”

In addition, it was said that “Watching my brother suffer, I reached out and attempted to bring him out, but the security officials told me that I should not touch him as I may harm his spine.”

He then reportedly proceeded to call an ambulance for the injured party.

“Moerane was talking the whole time; he told me to hunt for his phone, wallet, and bag while he was in agony. He also gave me directions to find his phone. Even though he was in that condition, he still sought to impose his will on some of us, said More.

Nonceba Molwele, who served as the speaker of the Johannesburg City Council before, described this time as a solemn one.

“We were not prepared for this. I never in a million years imagined that I would be sitting here, discussing Moerane as a late person. It is quite challenging for me to acknowledge that.

She went on to say that she had accepted him with open arms after the passing of two mayors in a very short period of time.

“We were able to collaborate quite effectively. Moerane would invite me to his program on the ground, despite the fact that I was meant to be doing oversight in my role as head of the legislature over the executive.
