THE BEST FRIEND OF RAPPER AKA, TEBELLO MOTSOANE, WAS ALSO MURDERED.

Tebello Motsoane, aka Tibz, was the close friend of South African musician Kiernan Jarryd Forbes, well known by his stage moniker AKA, who was also assassinated.

Before Tebello Motsoane pursued his boyhood passion of becoming a chef, the two initially worked together to manage AKA at events.

On February 10, a drive-by shooter killed them at a restaurant on Florida Road in Durban.

The rapper was reportedly dining there with his friends to celebrate his birthday when the awful event took place.

AKA’s family announced his departure in a message that was posted on his official Twitter account.
