The Baphuting ba ga Nawa family and community are preparing to lay to rest Kgosi Kabelo Nawa, their chief, who died from a short illness, in similar fashion to his predecessor.
“We are still struggling to come to terms with his sudden death. This person, who was so strong, suddenly passed. How he passed so suddenly left us broken,” she said.
Nawa took the reins in 2019 after his father, the late Kgosi Simon Molatlhegi Nawa, also died suddenly after a short illness in 2017. “He also suffered from a brief illness. He complained of being tired and he slept but never woke up. It took us two years to crown Kgosi Kabelo because we were still mourning his father,” said the aunt.“We are still mourning and it’s too early to decide on a way forward. We will make that decision once we have completed our mourning period, which we are not sure how long it will be,” she said.
Since taking over the Baphuting ba ga Nawa, Kgosi Kabelo had embarked on some charitable work including donating food parcels to the community during the Covid-19 pandemic. Kgosi Kabelo Nawa from Baphuthing ba Ga Nawa set to distribute food parcels at Lebotloane, Phedile, Tlholoe and Ruigtesloot today.
