Mcako, 56, is the second prominent political figure to be killed in the town’s Khayamandi township this year. Police have confirmed Mcako was shot in his tavern on Friday night.

“According to reports, police members attended to a complaint at the mentioned address and found the victim, a 56-year-old man, shot and fatally wounded. It has been reported that an unknown man entered the premises, fired shots at the victim and thereafter fled the scene on foot. The victim was transported to a nearby health care facility for medical attention, and later succumbed to his injuries.

On the day Wanana died, he organised a march against Mcako, accusing him of blocking service delivery in Khayamandi. “Contestation about what? We know Kayamandi is under the ANC, so there is no leadership contestation,” he said.
