Sports, Arts and Culture Minister Gayton McKenzie vowed to revive boxing in South Africa following the murder of former world champion Zolani Tete. McKenzie made the pledge during Tete’s memorial service at the historic Orient Theatre in KuGompo, where hundreds attended to honor the slain boxer. Tete was shot and killed outside his home in NU17, marking a tragic end to a career that brought international recognition to South African boxing. McKenzie emphasized the need for improved earnings and renewed investment in the sport, aiming to restore its former glory. The minister’s commitment comes amid growing concerns over the safety of athletes and the future of boxing in the country.
