North West Premier Thandi Modise and the Executive Council have noted the arrest of MEC for Local Government and Traditional Affairs, China Dodovu as a suspect in the murder case of ANC Regional Secretary in Dr Kenneth Kaunda District, Obuti Chika.
In appealing for calm, Premier Modise called on communities to allow the law to take its course for justice to be done for the Chika family to find closure to their tragic loss and end speculations as to who is/are responsible for his untimely death.
“While we note the arrest and hope that justice will be done, we also believe that every suspect is innocent until proven guilty by a responsible court of law. It is on this basis that we support further and intensive investigation into the matter. We believe that MEC Dodovu will cooperate with the investigation. In the meantime, MEC for Finance Paul Sebegoe will be acting in the position,” said Modise
