OFFICIAL STATEMENT BY MAYOR THABO JACOBS ON THE MURDER OF KAMOGELO BOIKANYO IN REAGILE, KOSTER

The Office of the Mayor notes with deep sadness and strong condemnation the brutal murder of Kamogelo Boikanyo in Reagile, Koster, allegedly at the hands of her former boyfriend, in what appears to be an act of gender-based violence and femicide. We are further disturbed by reports that the suspect attempted to take his own life following the incident.

On behalf of the municipality, I extend my deepest condolences to the Boikanyo family and the entire community mourning this tragic loss. No words can fully describe the pain caused by such a senseless act. The killing of women in our communities is a serious violation of human rights and a direct attack on the moral fabric of our society.

As we lay Kamogelo to rest tomorrow, your passing has sparked a flame that will drive change in how we confront and respond to gender-based violence. Your death must not be in vain, but must strengthen our collective resolve to act.

The municipality maintains a zero-tolerance stance towards gender-based violence and femicide. We call on law enforcement agencies to treat this matter with the urgency it deserves, to conduct a thorough investigation, and to ensure that justice is served without fear or favour. Those who commit crimes against women must face the full consequences of the law.

We further call on all sectors of society including community leaders, civil society, families, and residents to stand together in confronting and preventing gender-based violence. Silence and inaction only allow abuse to continue. We must speak out, report incidents, and support victims and survivors.

The municipality remains committed to working with all relevant stakeholders to strengthen prevention programmes, victim support services, and community safety initiatives. We reaffirm our collective responsibility to protect women and children and to build communities based on dignity, equality, and respect.
