The SGB's Khulani Ngcobo says he especially cared deeply for his pupils, even when they were not in school.
"There are learners who come from finically struggling homes, he used to take his own money and help them. He also used to take food to their homes so learners would have a meal at home," says Ngcobo.
"As the SGB, we want justice, and because they didn't just kill him, but they killed the spirit of the school. The scenes here are sad, and the teachers are down."
