Celebration plans turn to tragedy
By Gareth Wilson - 15 June 2015
INSTEAD of preparing for a Rhodes University student’s birthday, a Port Elizabeth family are planning her funeral after a hit-and-run accident in Grahamstown at the weekend.
Third-year accounting student Khanya Ndimba, 20, from Fernglen in Port Elizabeth, whose birthday would have been in eight days’ time, was killed while walking with two friends in New Street, Grahamstown, at about 4am on Saturday.
A driver handed himself over to police hours after the accident.
