Time heals, Motshekga tells families of horror taxi crash victims
4 May 2017
Verena - "The pain never goes, but time heals."
These were the words Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga said at the memorial for the 18 pupils and two adults who lost their lives in a minibus crash two weeks ago.
"I may not understand the pain fully, but please take comfort in knowing that time heals. I lost a child too, and the pain never goes, but it gets better with time," Motshekga said.
Motshekga was speaking with other government officials at the memorial in Verena, Mpumalanga, on Thursday.
