To many, he was AKA, SUPAMEGA, BHOVA and the many other names of affection his legion of fans called him by. Our son was loved and he gave love in return. In this time of grief, we appeal for your compassion, space and time to congregate as a family to decide on the upcoming days.

We thank you for the love and support we have received thus far and ask you to continue to keep us in your prayers and uplifted in the lord. Signed Tony and Lynn Forbes.”

The late AKA who was based in Johannesburg flew into Durban on February 10th for his birthday party which was scheduled to hold at a nightclub which he had advertised on his social media pages asking fans to show up.
