Former Acting King of Bapedi KK Sekhukhune accorded Special Provincial Official Funeral Category Two.
Limpopo Premier Mr. Chupu Stanley Mathabatha welcomes the decision by President Matamela Cyril Ramaphosa to grant the former Acting King of Bapedi Kgagudi Kenneth Sekhukhune a Special Provincial Official Funeral Category Two.
The Presidential approval follows the recent application by Premier Mathabatha, that former Acting King of Bapedi KK Sekhukhune be honoured with a Special Provincial Official Funeral.
" We continue to send our heartfelt condolences to the royal family, the people of Sekhukhune and Bapedi nation in general. I believe that the approval by President Ramaphosa is a befitting honour for a man who was at the helm of Bapedi Kingdom for 40 years since 1976. As Limpopo, we pride ourselves for being a rural province and our relationship with Traditional Leaders is sacrosanct. We are indeed honoured that this great man will be laid to rest in a dignified manner," says Premier Mathabatha.
The granting of the Special Provincial Official Funeral Category Two means that all official flags in Limpopo will be flown half-mast on the day of the funeral, which is arranged to take place on 01 July 2023.
