Veteran journalist, communications specialist and chairperson of the African Media and Communicators Forum, Elijah Mhlanga said there has been growing concern among the media fraternity across South Africa after the mysterious disappearance of Ndlovu and Mdhluli.

“We are worried. On our platform, we have both communicators and journalists. Since the time of the disappearance of Aserie, there are questions from colleagues asking what has really happened. We do not know but we are concerned.

“Aserie was running a community radio station, which is one of the stations that is used to run different campaigns. I can talk specifically about government campaigns which were put on the platform which he co-founded. We found that platform (Capital Live community radio station) to be a useful one,” said Mhlanga.

“We cannot allow a situation where one of us just disappears like that, without a trace. What we are appealing for is support. It can happen to anyone. Let us be on high alert, all of us. Whatever we hear, let us pass it on to the police.”

He added that staff at Capital Live radio station, with offices in Mamelodi, have been continuing to work under the stressful conditions.
