Tributes poured in for City Press senior reporter Ngwako Modjadji, who was killed in an apparent hit-and-run incident.
Johannesburg - Tributes poured in on Sunday for City Press senior reporter Ngwako Modjadji, who was killed in an apparent hit-and-run incident outside the e'Social Link chisa nyama in Soweto, Johannesburg in the early hours of Sunday morning.
True to his character, Modjadji was an inspiration to many political reporters who served in various newsrooms. South Africa owed him a debt of gratitude for the role he played in instilling professionalism and upholding acceptable ethical standards of the journalism profession. "It is a fitting tribute that Modjadji’s final byline appeared on the front page of the City Press [on Sunday]. This speaks to his integrity and commitment to his craft. Modjadji always sought to get the facts right, sometimes even holding a story back because it did not sit right with him. His duty was to convey the news, not involve himself in internal politics.
City Press editor-in-chief Mondli Makhanya said Modjadji had incredible energy and enthusiasm for his work.
