\u201cMkhwebane\u2019s mother passed away on the morning of 27 March 2021,\u201dsaid Segalwe.<\/p>\n

A message from Mkhwebane was also shared on Twitter.<\/p>\n

It read: \u201cThank you for your love and support.You remained resolute on prayer during all challenges and attacks I faced. Thank you for leaving me with the gift of prayer and we shall overcome. I love you, Busisiwe\u201d.<\/p>\n

Messages and tributes were shared in various social media platforms.<\/p>\n

One user by the name of African soil was the first to post about the passing.<\/p>\n

\u201cPrayers for Advocate Mkhwebane and her family. Her mother passed away at a time the ANC of Cyril Ramaphosa was torturing her daughter. She was crying everyday and abused by journalists. Rest in peace Gogo Mkhwebane,\u201d wrote African Soil.<\/p>\n

Another user, Nkosentsha Shezi wrote: \u201cWe stand with you revolutionary queen of Africa, may the Lord give you strength and courage in this trying moment\u201d.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Mkhwebane made a brief appearance in the Pretoria Magistrates Court where the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) requested more time to deliberate atop the merit of her representations seeking the three counts of perjury she\u2019s facing to be relinquished.<\/p>\n
