“The nation has lost one of the most promising talents. We are deeply saddened by the untimely death of our one of our promising officials,” Masikhwa said.

“Segapo was energetic and his ambition was officiating at the highest level, the Premier Soccer League one day. We truly lost a talent here and on behalf of the Association and football fraternity, I would like to pass on my deepest condolences to the family and wish them nothing but strength in these trying times.”
