– The community of Daveyton is reeling after the heartbreaking death of a young student, Nonhlanhla Kheswa Gule, who reportedly took her own life following a painful series of events at her school.
According to local radio sources, the ordeal began when Nonhlanhla clashed with a classmate over a phone conversation. Frightened, she avoided school the next day but eventually returned, hoping to seek help from a teacher. Instead of comfort or protection, she was allegedly met with harsh and humiliating words.
The teacher is said to have told her to focus on her studies to escape her family’s poverty and even mocked her hygiene, saying she “doesn’t bathe.” Those words reportedly cut Nonhlanhla deeply, leaving her feeling belittled and unsupported.
Her suffering didn’t end there. During a school break, the same classmate allegedly assaulted her in front of others. Wounded both emotionally and physically, Nonhlanhla went home carrying a burden no child should bear.
Later that day, overwhelmed with despair, she ended her life. A suicide note she left behind revealed the depth of her pain and sense of betrayal.
Nonhlanhla’s Final Words
To my family and anyone who reads this,
My heart is broken, and I don’t know how to carry this pain anymore. The words from my teacher cut me so deep—telling me I don’t bathe, that I need to study to fix our family’s struggles, as if I’m not trying. I went to them for help, but instead, I felt worthless. Then the other student, the one I fought with, beat me during break, and no one stopped it. I feel so alone, like I’m nothing. I can’t keep going like this. I’m sorry to my family—I love you, but I’m too hurt to stay. Please forgive me.
Nonhlanhla’s tragic death has sparked outrage and sorrow across Daveyton, highlighting the urgent need for schools to address bullying and ensure that teachers handle students’ struggles with empathy and care.
Her story is now a painful reminder of how words and actions—whether from peers or authority figures—can leave scars too heavy for a child to carry.
🕊️ May Nonhlanhla’s soul rest in peace.
