File: City of Joburg's EMS spokesperson, Robert Mulaudzi with rescuers at Olifantsvlei plant where they had expected to find the missing six year old Soweto boy on Wednesday.

With the week-long search for missing Soweto boy, Khayalethu Magadla (6), bearing no fruit, it is expected to enter the second week on Monday.

@CityofJoburgEMS Its #Day7 today we continue to search for young Khayalethu who slipped and fell into a manhole last Sunday,we have discovered other 4 manholes along the pipeline which were covered we will be exploring with the hope of locating the young boy.@CityofJoburgZA pic.twitter.com/H3q8sKYern

Magadla fell into an open sewerage hole last Sunday while playing soccer with friends.

Johannesburg Emergency Management Services Spokesperson, Robert Mulaudzi says today’s search covered 8 kilometres, but that efforts were futile. He says their teams will continue with the search again tomorrow.

“We continued with the search along the pipe and we managed to cover the second and third manhole from where the incident occurred, to the forth manhole. It is clear. We also managed to cover four other manholes which were covered because that area used to be an informal settlement. Unfortunately we couldn’t locate anything along that line.

@CityofJoburgEMS We are in Dlamini again this morning as we continue with the search of a 6 year old Khayalethu Magadla who slipped and fell into a manhole last Sunday while playing with his friends.@CityofJoburgZA @CoJPublicSafety #JoburgBravest pic.twitter.com/9kdEjtyPei
