The concluding part of the statement acknowledged Murdah’s family but revealed that he will not be coming for the funeral and memorial services due to observing cultural protocol.
The Bongani update sparked a debate on social media and it has the DJ trending.
“In Tsonga culture, you can’t attend the funeral of a person who once had sexual relations(marriage, gf/by, nyatsi, fling) with your partner. It can lead to severe sickness which results in death within a year or 2. So that is why Bongani can’t attend AKA’S funeral,” a tweep explained.

it’s the fact that they had to mention Bongani’s absence because people on social media are idiots. https://t.co/UKkUtF1kc5

People on this platform can be dumb sometimes. The focus has now shifted from mourning AKA to why is Bongani not allowed to attend the memorial and funeral service, even after the family provided the reason why. Y’all be nosey and can’t give the family a break 🤮🤮#RIPKiernan

What cultural protocol is Bongani observing?

I don’t think they explained Bongani’s absence for the benefit of twitter people. They were publicly acknowledging his reason for his absence. You guys don’t need a reason to go off anyway

The family acknowledges Bongani as their extended family but men are out here writing think pieces about how his wife is disrespectful towards him, for mourning the father of her child
