The Secretary General for the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC-T) Douglas Mwonzora has confirmed Mahlangu’s death saying;

“He succumbed to cancer early this morning in Bulawayo. We have been robbed of one of the most fearless fighter for democracy.

“A member of our standing committee and a long-serving cadre who also served as an MP for Nkulumane as well as national youth chairperson.”

During the shaky coalition government of 2009-2013, Mahlangu served as Deputy Minister of Youth Development, Indigenisation and Empowerment.

He is a former MP for Nkulumane and also former Chairman of the MDC-T Youth wing.
