Fikile Mlotshwa, a community activist best known for being the first person to win the Sowetan Woman of the Year Award in 1987, has died.
According to her heartbroken daughters, Mlotshwa was not only a mother but also an Africanist, a community worker, a lover, a woman of God and caregiver.
Beyond the public eye, Mlotshwa was a mother who valued simplicity and strength, they said.
