Political Violence Claims Another Life: IFP’s Deputy Chief Whip Gunned Down in Gauteng

South Africa’s relentless wave of political killings has struck again, this time claiming the life of Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) Deputy Chief Whip Khethamabala Petros “KP” Sithole. The 68-year-old veteran politician was shot dead in Katlehong on Saturday night, adding to the growing list of assassinated public servants.

Sithole’s distinguished career spanned decades, serving as IFP’s Gauteng Provincial Chairperson and National Council member. His sudden death has left the party reeling, with officials labeling it a targeted assassination and demanding urgent police action. “Bring the killers to justice,” the IFP stated – a plea that echoes across countless unsolved political murders in the country.

This latest killing underscores the deadly risks facing South African politicians regardless of age, status or experience. The IFP mourns not just a loyal member, but the institutional knowledge and leadership that died with him. As investigations begin, many question whether this case will follow the pattern of delayed justice that has become tragically familiar.

Sithole’s assassination amplifies concerns about South Africa’s political violence epidemic, where public service has become synonymous with mortal danger. With each new killing, the nation loses more than individuals – it bleeds institutional memory and democratic stability.
