The Premier of the Northern Cape, Dr Zamani Saul, is deeply saddened and disturbed by the news of the brutal and senseless murder of 11 year-old Relebogile Segami, whose body was discovered last week behind the Northern Cape Provincial Legislature.
The Premier calls on communities to work with Government in order to completely stop these barbaric individuals that thrive on the vulnerability of our women and children.
