In an online post, the activist raised urgent concerns after a member of her March and March movement was allegedly shot dead just days after the group held protests across several South African cities on Tuesday, June 30, 2026.
Ngobese-Zuma shared the news on Facebook on Friday, July 3, 2026, including a screenshot of messages that pointed to the alleged shooting incident.
One of those messages, also shown in the screenshot, came from a fellow protestor who claimed they were being trailed by unidentified individuals, raising fears for the safety of others in the movement.
The activist alleged that the killing represented the second death of a South African at the hands of foreigners within the same week, a claim she used to underscore what she described as a deteriorating security situation.
