Limpopo’s controversial rapper, Shebeshxt, whose real name is Lehlogonolo Chauke, is fighting for his life in a hospital following a fatal car accident just outside Polokwane. The tragic incident, which took place at 10:20 PM on the R37, claimed the life of his 9-year-old daughter, who was a passenger in the vehicle. Shebeshxt was en route to a performance in Polokwane when the accident occurred, the tragic news are reported by ZiMoja.
According to Tidimalo Chuene of the Limpopo Department of Roads and Transport, Shebeshxt’s car collided with a heavy motor vehicle and overturned. “A 9-year-old female passenger from the Polo passed away while the driver and another passenger sustained serious injuries. The cause of the incident is still under investigation,” Chuene confirmed.
This marks the second serious accident for Shebeshxt in six months. Earlier in January, the rapper was involved in another collision in Polokwane, which left his new sports car destroyed. Although he escaped with minor injuries that time, the pattern of accidents raises significant concerns about road safety and responsible driving.
The aftermath of the recent crash has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with many expressing their condolences and calling attention to the possible role of reckless driving and alcohol. One Twitter user commented, “Speedy recovery Shebex. If this involves alcohol, I hope it will be a lesson to him this time around because he’s forever in accidents.” Another shared, “I live in Polokwane and see Shebeshxt speeding often. He is always in a rush. Anyways, speedy recovery to him.”
There are also unconfirmed reports circulating on X, that Shebeshxt may have lost his foot in the accident, adding to the gravity of the situation. His wife, Kholofelo Chuene, who also acts as his manager, has not yet commented on the incident.
This heartbreaking incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of reckless driving. Whether influenced by alcohol or not, the consequences of such behaviour can be devastating, as evidenced by the loss of Shebeshxt’s young daughter. It is a call to all drivers to prioritise safety and responsibility on the roads to prevent further tragedies.
