Akhumzi Jezile’s funeral details released

Akhumzi Jezile’s memorial service will be held on Thursday.

The TV presenter died on Saturday morning following an accident that killed the lives of five, including Siyasanga Kobese and Thobani Mseleni.

Jezile’s memorial service has been organized by key players in the entertainment industry, with permission from his family.

“We are humbled by the continued outpouring love, support and prayers we have received to date from all corners of those that were touched by his life. Even though we are still dealing with the shock of the loss of our son and brother; the family is comforted by the knowledge that Akhumzi loved the Lord and was unashamed of the gospel of Christ. We would like to thank everyone for the support, and further request that you continue to pray for us and afford us the space that we so desperately need in our time of grief,” family spokesperson Percy Vilakazi said in the statement.

A separate memorial will be held by Urban Brew Studios at a later date.
