Tembe Nelli 22 died on April 11 after apparently falling from the 10th floor of the Pepperclub hotel in Cape Town. Her death was ruled suicide however it is still being investigated by the SA Police.
At her funeral, her father, Moses Tembe had to disregard any form of Suicide concerning Tembe’s death and set the record straight on circumstances about her death.
“As Anele’s father, I categorically state that Anele was neither suicidal nor did she commit suicide. We must as a matter of priority deal with the scourge that bedevils our youth. Alcohol which is overused and drugs. Fellow South Africans we better wake up and smell the coffee, we have a serious problem with substance abuse.
“I cannot allow an unfortunate narrative to go unchallenged, a narrative that irks me to no end … that is ‘Anele was chronically suicidal’. All I can say is, until Anele turned 21, not a single member of her family, my family would have associated her with suicide,” he said.
