ActionSA extends its deepest condolences to the family, friends, the 702 community and loved ones of renowned journalist Tshidi Madia.

As EWN’s Associate Editor of Politics, Tshidi carried herself with warmth, kindness and grace. She was always welcoming, yet unafraid to be firm and probing when the moment demanded it. These qualities earned her the respect and admiration of colleagues, leaders and the wider public alike.

It is with deep sadness that we reflect on her life, which although far too short, was deeply impactful and meaningful. We hope that in this time of great loss her loved ones may draw comfort from the fact that hers was a life well lived and one that touched countless people.

ActionSA wishes her family solace and strength and prays that the Lord provides them with comfort in this difficult time. Her passing is not only a loss to her family but to the entire media fraternity and to the broader institutions and society where Tshidi’s life and work played such an instrumental role.
