Posted on by Purity Lisa

Thobani Mseleni’s close friend Phelo Bala is finding it hard to adjust without his presence.

He does not know when or if the pain of losing him will ease up.

 

“I don’t know how long this pain is going to last. So many ways of trying to avoid it but it just won’t go away. I don’t know about closure.. Uyenzile into Thobani.”

People from Thobani’s hometown have painted a giant-sized mural in honour of the actor, where anyone can pay tribute to their fallen “son.”

Thobani was killed in a horror car crash along with his friends Akhumzi Jezile, Siyasanga Kobese and two others on April 28.

Singer Siyasanga Kobese and acctor Thobani Mseleni were among those killed in a car crash that claimed the lives of five people. Their families have confirmed. Among the five, was YoTV presenter Akhumzi Jezile.

The other two names have not been confirmed as their families have not been informed.

A culpable homicide case has now been opened. There was a head-on collision on the N6 near Queenstown. People in the other car escaped unhurt.

“I went to the scene yesterday but I couldn’t stay there for an hour. It was bad. All of them had injuries on their heads. All of them. I saw my daughter’s feet. She is my child. I recognized her by her feet. This is bad. This is bad‚” said Pastor Norman Kobese about his daughter Siyasanga.

“She was a good girl. As soon as she got money she would send it to us. She looked after us. She was a hard-worker. I spoke to her on Friday night and she said she was going to stop by us to say hello on her way to work. But she never made it‚” he added.

Thobani Mseleni’s family have been devastated by his death.

“It’s very difficult. Thobani and I stayed together. It was very fast. He was fetching clothes on Thursday because he was going to be travelling. He said he would be back on Sunday or Monday. When we got the call we didn’t know if he had died. He was on his way to a wedding and when we phoned the uncle he said everyone in the car died. His mother is devastated. She can’t even speak.”

Their deaths have left the country shocked to the core. Tributes continue to pour in to their families.
