Elsewhere, Briefly News previously reported that a heavy sombreness washed over "the streets" as dejected users mulled over the death of a young learner killed in a horrific taxi crash.

It comes after a Twitter user, @Makonco_M, took to the social networking and microblogging platform to share images of the 15-year-old boy and the heartwrenching accident scene where he had his final moments.

"17th January 2022. It's hard to say rest in peace to a 15-year-old. I know you fought and fought, bafo, but at least you should've told me that this fight is way too much for you. Rest, mntakaMama," read the sad caption accompanied by several loudly crying and pleading face emojis.
