On Tuesday last week, when the principal and admin assistant of Inxiweni Primary School in Tembisa were shot and killed, the principal had earlier that day weeded flowerbeds in preparation for an event to be held at the school three days later.
However, Nozibele Thapu, 58, would never attend that event.
Thapu and admin assistant Nobantu Njomboni, 55, were shot in the afternoon and died at the scene. Two suspects were later arrested.
