It’s our #CountryDuty to remember #ThomasSithole and keep the story alive by putting the necessary pressure on law enforcement authorities.
On 12th Jan 2026, the lifeless body of Thomas Junior Sithole was discovered by SAPS Diving Crew following a tragic incident at the Vaal River.
News thus far indicate that Thomas was with friends when he ‘fell off the boat’.
His family was only noticed around 22:00 of the matter.
It has also been reported that the family experienced some frustrations with SAPS when they initially reported the matter.
We need to know:
1. Status of the investigation
2. Is the family receiving any support from the authorities, if so, what kind of support?
3. What can be done to assist the family with any contributions if required.
Let’s do our part Bahlali and #RememberThomasSithole
