Vukani
|December 04, 2025
Four months after the tragic death of seven-year-old Lolitha Kowa, the community called for justice and an end to gender-based violence (GBV) as they marched through the streets of Kuyasa in Khayelitsha on Friday, November 28.
Youngsters from the community support the march.
(PICTURES: PHIRI CAWE)
Community members, activists, and organisations marched to the spot on Nambuzane Street where the young girl’s lifeless body was found.
The march, organised by Nonceba Counselling Centre in partnership with the local Department of Social Development (DSD), formed part of the 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children. It was held to honour Lolitha's memory and to renew calls for the protection of women and children.
