Dark cloud continues to hang in South Africa. It is very sad when a family loses a head as the man is considered to be the head of the family. However, when a mother is still alive, atleast there’s hope in the family and warmth can still exists as the mother does manage to keep warmth in the family even when the father is no more. However, it gets to be another story, sad one for that matter when the mother pass on as well.
It does not matter which age she is but that’s the wound which never heals when both parents die.
In just a matter of a year since the ANC minister Jackson Mthembu passed away on January last year due to Covid-19 related complications, now his wife, Thembi Mthembu has followed him.
The Mthembu family confirmed that their bride died on Thursday morning in a Pretoria hospital.
Thembi was ill for quite some time and the family said they will issue a statement on her passing in due course.
