JOHANNESBURG - A memorial service will be held on Friday for Kulani Mathebula, the pupil who was stabbed to death, while walking to Mondeor High School.

Gauteng Education spokesperson Steve Mabona said: “The memorial service will be at 9am. As emotions will be high, there will not be any expectations of normal schooling under those circumstances. We’ll give learners a space to mourn and pay their last respects to the fellow learner.” Meanwhile, Gauteng Education MEC Panyaza Lesufi has praised the police for the swift arrests of two more suspects linked to the fatal stabbing of a Mondeor High School pupil.

Two others - both aged 15 - were arrested in the early hours of Thursday morning - one in Soweto and the other in nearby Naturena.He added while he didn’t want to speculate, but pupils could be seen in some of the video footage obtained in connection with Mathebula’s murder.

Motshekga deeply concerned by high levels of school violenceBasic Education Minister Angie Motshekga says she hopes that police will prioritise the murder case of 19-year-old Kulani Mathebula, who was fatally stabbed on Wednesday. We need to go back to our roots in schools- Assembly where pastors, teachers and students will pray together before the start of each day... we need God in our school... Our children are being slaughtered in schools and the minister is “concerned” Some of the youth are out control. They are rude, arrogant and have no respect for anyone or anything. Bring back discipline in schools.
