'We were good friends and we shared a room in camp. Swa tika (it's tough) to accept, but nothing lasts forever.'
Since Jantjie was 30 and Mobbie is 24, the latter said he got a lot of advice from the deceased on life matters.
"I came from the development and I was promoted ; he came the following season. I was a quiet person, but always full of laughs, so he wasn't the type of person to always keep a serious face. "I'll miss a lot of things and he helped me a lot, because he was older than me. Even when I had family issues, he was the one I would go to," Mobbie added.
Ea Lla Koto players were called to a meeting on Monday at the club's base in Bethlehem and informed of Jantjie's passing. The Premier Soccer League, meanwhile, confirmed they will observe a moment of silence for Jantjie before their games.
