came in numbers to the funeral of skilled
spinner, Bongani Makhubo (40) of
Soshanguve, Tshwane.
As the cars spun around in circles, spectators
cheered. Then a young woman took off her panties
and began dancing in the middle of the spinning cars.
But not everyone was pleased to see her waving her
underwear in the air.
John Lelaka said: “People are allowed to celebrate but
not in a way that disturbs other people’s peace.â€
Bongani died last week after a short illness. The
drivers respected the family during the formal burial
ceremony at Soshanguve Cemetery. After the funeral,
they had a spinning competition.
About 300 gusheshe engines roared and the smell of
burning rubber filled the air at Spin City.
The funeral was attended by spinning clubs from
Mpumalanga, Limpopo and Pretoria.
Puff Selotela, chairman of the Botsotso Social Club
said : “This is a way of celebrating one of our own and
honouring his love for the game of spinning.
“Spinning is not only a thug sport. We have attorneys,
doctors and businessmen in our spinning clubs.
“We all do it for the love of it.â€
Reikhutise Malala, a longtime friend of Bongani, said
in his farewell message: “You taught me how to be
humble and inspired me to venture into business. I
will remember you for your charisma, bravery and
passion.
“It is sad when someone dies and you never have the
chance to tell them the impact they made on your life.
“I guess life is too short and we all need to live while
we can.â€
