Motjeka Madisha's passing has been confirmed by his family, Mamelodi Sundowns have revealed.

In December 2020, reports surfaced that the Bafana Bafana international had lost his life in a car accident.

Sundowns had released a statement at the time revealing that the Madisha family had requested privacy to get the DNA results of the driver, which they have now received.

Statement:

Mamelodi Sundowns is saddened to confirm that the person who passed away in a car crash, on 12 December 2020, is indeed Motjeka “Ace” Madisha. The confirmation comes nearly fifty days after the passing of the player and due to the nature of the death as a result of the horrifying car crash, all processes had to be followed to confirm the identity of the dearly departed.

The unfortunate accident that took place on the Zuurfontein Road near Chloorkop, also claimed the life of Madisha’schildhood friend, Thabang Martin Kakase.

The distraught family of the late defender met with the pathologists a few days after the accident to confirm the identity of the driver through DNA tests and after the anticipated delay which requires due diligence it was regrettably confirmed on Thursday that the deceased is a member of the Madisha Family.
