Human Rights Day is an emotional time for the affected families of the victims who were gunned down at the Langa Massacre in Kariega.
Some of these families lost their breadwinners and this has left lifelong scars on them.
In this years commemoration, Eastern Cape Premier Oscar Mabuyane reiterated that they have not abandoned the families of the victims.
Mabuyane says they are working with the Langa Massacre Foundation, which was formed to promote reconciliation and healing to the affected families.
We are working with families and the foundation here has been coordinating about the issues with families, and I have said there are a number of massacres in our province of the struggle, so whatever we do here, we do in other places as well. So we are trying to find a common and comprehensive strategy to relieve such kinds of people.
