The news of the tragic loss has sparked reactions on social media. Mpumi Nzama reflected, “Ecclesiastes 9:11&12: For man does not know his time. Just as fish are caught in an evil net and birds are caught in a trap, so the sons of men are ensnared in a time of disaster, when it suddenly overtakes them.”
Sphamandla Mbesi commented on the incident, stating, “A way to die when ur a billionaire, history indeed did repeat itself n they were so foolish to be a part of it.”
