They were returning from a \u2018Work and Play\u2019 district sports event held at Mtubatuba when the accident occurred at about 7.30pm at Mfekayi near Mganwini.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAs the sphere of local government, we are saddened by this tragic loss of life. To lose five officials in such a manner as this is really heart-breaking. Their loss leaves a huge void in this municipality,\u201d said Hlomuka.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MEC Hlomuka has also expressed his condolences to the Ndlamlenze Traditional Community in the Amajuba district following the passing of Inkosi Zwelifile Piet Nzima (69) following a short illness on Friday, 18 October.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe passing of Inkosi Nzima has dealt a huge blow to the institution of traditional leadership within our province. Inkosi Nzima was a fountain of wisdom to the younger amakhosi on issues pertaining to traditional leadership. He was a strong proponent of development and through his leadership, a number of service delivery projects were implemented within his communities,\u201d said Hlomuka.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight:

initiatives,\u201d added Hlomuka.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hlomuka has dispatched senior officials from the department to support and assist the family of Inkosi Nzima during this difficult time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KZN MEC for
