Ward councillor Thabang Maupa, 42, of Ward 5 in Fetakgomo Tubatse Local Municipality, Limpopo, and his wife were ambushed on Monday night by unknown gunmen who shot them in their car.
His wife, 40, sustained injuries but Maupa died at the scene. It is widely believed that his death is linked to his public criticism of the ANC and Mayor Maudu Phokane, whose municipality lost about R280 million it had invested with the now-defunct VBS.
