Watson Mzwandile Majova was born in 1958. His parents were teachers.
Watson Mzwandile Majova, Paulos Madiba, Aaron Makwe, members of the African National Congress (ANC) and uMkhonto we Sizwe (MK), were killed on 28 November 1985. On 17 March 1998, the Truth and Reconcilaition Commission prepared to exhume the bodies of Aaron Makwe, Watson Majova and Paulos Madiba on a farm near Boshoek, outside Rustenburg. An employee of the undertakers responsible for burying them pointed out three graves to investigators. When the three graves were opened, it was found that there were twelve bodies, four in each grave. The person responsible for burying the original three bodies could not explain this. The twelve bodies that were exhumed are believed to include those of the three men mentioned above. The identity of the remaining nine bodies could not be established.
Majova’s remains have now been reburied by his family in Potchefstroom.
