North West Acting Premier, Nono Maloyi has received with shock the news of the passing of two journalists who once worked for SABC News - North West Region.
A seasoned radio journalist Bobby Serame (53) and a video journalist Moleboheng Khaeane (33) passed on yesterday due to ill-health and car accident respectively.
Bobby Serame worked for the SABC as a radio journalist for over two decades before joining Mahikeng FM last year.
Moleboheng Khaeane was also one of the few female video journalists in the province. She worked for the SABC News - North West Region for three (3) years before joining SABC News Free State Region.
Acting Premier Maloyi says both Serame and Khaeane were critical in informing the people of North West about a number of government programmes and initiatives aimed at addressing various socio-economic challenges confronting the province.
“Members of the media are critical government stakeholders and without them we are unable to reach and share information regarding government services to our people. Both Serame and Khaeane contributed immensely in empowering our people with information that can better their lives. May their souls find eternal rest. My condolences to their families, friends and colleagues” remarked acting Premier Maloyi.
