Sinovuyo Dyokwe: A Candidate’s Tragic End
Description
A beloved community activist and DA candidate Sinovuyo Dyokwe was brutally murdered just outside a voter registration station in Dunoon — a tragedy that has shaken Cape Town and the party she served. Months before her death, she’d reported an extortion threat involving seven men demanding protection money, and had filed a sworn affidavit with police. The DA, already alerted through its safety unit, is now ramping up investigations with the SAPS. In a powerful show of solidarity, the party is offering a R50,000 reward for information leading to her killers’ arrest — since she wasn’t a city employee — and is covering funeral costs, calling her “one of their own.” Her family, still in shock, recall seeing her just hours before the attack, believing she was targeted on her way out of the station. The DA’s grief is palpable, and their support is a beacon in this dark time.
