Kempton Park killings spark national concern
Police investigations into the deaths of women in the Ekurhuleni area are continuing.
Authorities have urged anyone with information that could assist investigators to come forward, while increased police visibility has been announced in affected communities.
The cases have also prompted protests, memorial events and public calls for action against GBV.
Activists have questioned whether enough is being done to protect women, particularly as communities continue to grapple with reports of women going missing and being found dead.
Social media becomes a platform for criticism
For @ohthatstoz, music has become a way to express those concerns directly.
The diss track has added to a growing body of social media commentary surrounding the Kempton Park killings, with South Africans using platforms such as TikTok and X to demand answers and draw attention to GBV.
The performance represents the TikToker’s own criticism of Ramaphosa and his perceived response to the crisis. It does not represent an official statement from the president or government.
As investigations into the deaths continue, the conversation around GBV, women’s safety and the government’s response remains firmly in the public spotlight.
