RADIO PRESENTER STABBED TO DEATH.

Former South African radio personality Kwazi ‘Captain’ Magubane was recently stabbed and killed in a car hijacking incident on Easter Monday.


Kwazi’s death was first announced by his former employers, a community radio station, Imbokodo FM, on their official Facebook page.

The 36-year-old presenter leaves behind his fiancée and 5 months old baby.

His fiancée Thabile, stunned by her lover’s death, couldn’t say much when she contacted the Suns Team but confirmed he has passed on.

His best friend Nkosi told the publication Kwazi was travelling with his two friends from KwaMashu to Sydenham.

“From what we understand, they were followed by an unknown vehicle from KwaMashu. When they got to Sydenham, his friends got out of the vehicle to relieve themselves.

“He was in the car talking on the phone. The suspects attacked him and demanded the keys. But the keys were unfortunately not with him,” he said.

Nkosi mentioned that the robbers stabbed Kwazi on the chest and on the neck when they couldn’t find the keys.

“The suspects ended up fleeing without the car,” said Nkosi.

“We are hoping for a quick arrest. There are some positive indications that something is being done by the police.”

Another friend, Sthembiso Mbhele, described Kwazi as a very humble person.

“He left Imbokodo FM last year to start a transportation business. May his soul rest in eternal peace,” said Sthembiso.

Kwazi’s memorial service was held at eThekwini Community Church on Thursday, 8 April and his funeral will held on Saturday, 10 April.

The KZN police spokeswoman, Captain Nqobile Gwala said a case of murder was being investigated by Sydenham SAPS.

“A 36-year-old man was allegedly stabbed by unknown suspects on Howell Road on Monday. He was taken to hospital where he died on arrival. The matter is still under investigation,” Gwala said.
