It was sad to hear about the shooting and passing away of Lucky Dube. People are highjacked every day, but when we shoot our icons it is clear that we are under siege. Something must be done fast, since our president thinks crime is a perception.

Citizens must protect each other, we must be vigilant at all times, we must defend each other and let criminals know that we are determined to take back our country. We can do this by reporting the crimes we witness, coming forward with information, forming street committees and patrolling our streets. If we don't, no one will.

Rest in peace Lucky Dube, we hope your senseless killing will not be in vain.
