TO ALL IN THE UPCSA
It is with sadness to announce the passing away of Chief Madoda Shadrack Zibi on Saturday morning, the 8th of April 2023. May he rest in peace. The funeral service will be held at the AmaHlubi Great Place in Khayakhulu on Saturday, the 15th of April 2023 at 09:00.
Chief Zibi was an elder who was very instrumental in the establishment and sustenance of the Khayakhulu Congregation which is on the outskirts of Rustenburg, within the Presbytery of Tshwane. He was the longest serving Clerk of the Session of that Congregation.
He was the Chief of AmaHlubi in the Khayakhulu area. He served as the Charman of North West Province of the Congress of Traditional Leaders of South Africa (CONTRALESA) and also served in the national structure of the Congress.
He was a retired Professor of Humanities from the University of North West where he also served as a Deputy Vice Chancellor.
Please keep Mrs Zibi and the family, amaHlubi people under the chiefdom and the Khayakhulu Congregation in our prayers.
Warmest regards,
Rev Dr Lungile Mpetsheni
