'You Brought Us Siwelele, Which Brought Us Joy RIP Ntate Molemela'

Former Bloemfontein Celtic owner Dr Petrus Molemela sadly passed away at the age of 83 on the weekend. He served as an Honorary Life President of the club and was an instrumental figure when he bought the team back in 1975. The supporters in the South African football fraternity have sent through their messages of condolences.

"He brought players who were dedicated, Wire Chirwale, Eden Katango, Ishmael Mokitlane and many more. RIP!" – jayjay2

"Sad news! May his soul rest in peace." – cyntra

"You brought us Siwelele, which brought us joy irrespective of the teams we follow." – tcdeluxe

"To the entire Celtic family, we learned quite a lot from the President. He was a hero." – Diketso Senyane

"RIP Tata. You played a tremendous role in SA football and you sacrificed a lot for football. You ran Celtic without sponsors and survived hiccups. I salute you, Ntate Molemela." – Master Mketule

"When I see Dr Molemela's name, I remember these following players from our old Siwelele – Ongandzi, Omony, Batabaire, Abram Nteo, Taaibos, Spandeel, Merahe, Kilambe, Nunens, Seema, Maduka, Mahlatsi, Kukame, the list is endless. May your soul Rest in Peace, #Siwelele4life." – Ashlezo wa Lesele
