UDM in Mtubatuba conveys condolences on the passing of Councillor BP Mthiyane
Statement by Remington Mazibuko, Councillor in the Inkosi Mtubatuba Local Municipality and UDM KwaZulu-Natal Provincial Chairperson
The United Democratic Movement (UDM) in Mtubatuba extends its sincere condolences to the family, friends, colleagues and community of Councillor BP Mthiyane of the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), Ward 21 councillor in the Inkosi Mtubatuba Local Municipality, following his passing last night.
Councillor Mthiyane’s passing has come as a shock to many in the municipality. He was known as a humble man who cared about the people of Ward 21 and served his community with commitment.
Although we served from different political parties, we shared the responsibility of serving the people of Mtubatuba. In local government, councillors are closest to residents, and the loss of a ward councillor is felt directly by the community that relied on him for representation, assistance and leadership.
On behalf of the UDM in KwaZulu-Natal and Mtubatuba, I convey our condolences to Councillor Mthiyane’s family, the IFP, the Inkosi Mtubatuba Local Municipality, his fellow councillors and the residents of Ward 21.
May his family find strength during this difficult time, and may his contribution to his community be remembered with respect.
