So I heard Winnie "stompie killer" Mandela being extremely vocal on the radio this morning about this kid dying and saying that the teachers and staff at the school have been terrible, couldnt care about the incident.
She said that someone pushed the girl and thats why she dies.
I am just waiting for this to be a race issue. :rolleyes:
Really sad thing that happened and my condolences go pout to the family.

The family of the girl who drowned is very close to the Mandela family, which is why Winnie is involved and is being so vocal about it... I don't think anyone except marine1 has mentioned race...
"All we want are answers, and only then will we get closure." This was the plea from the Mandela family, hours after a 7-year-old girl who they regarded as their granddaughter was found floating face down in the pool of a Johannesburg private school.

I am just making a comment on how things generally play themselves out in SA. I understand they are friends however I am just concerned this other kid who allegedly pushed this girl will be made out to be white and this will turn out to be a political thing as it usually does. Yes I am the first person to mention race and it is only my opinion and it may be completely wrong. If it is I will delete what I said.

What amazed me was that I have never heard this girls name mentioned, she is always referred to as "the girl that is considered to be the godchild of the Mandela family" or something of that ilk. The school was on 702 shortly after it happened and they sounded prety cut up about it.
