SIBANYONI, Popi Lettie

Age 48

Description
She lost her house when it was destroyed by alleged supporters of Chief Jack Mphezulu Mahlangu in Goederede, near Dennilton, KwaNdebele, in July 1975. Chief Mahlangu supported the state’s proposal to incorporate Goederede into Lebowa because it would grant him chief rule, but many residents resisted incorporation, which resulted in the destruction of property and physical attacks.
