    A touching tribute Somizi. So pertinent in so many arenas.
    Perhaps there is so much collective trauma among South Africans that most do not know how or if to help.
    May mercy prevail in the industry.

    This needs to go viral... with all the troubles, we have become very hateful, bitter and negative in South Africa. We need to start looking out for each other or at the least not being mean and the whole country can start changing

    I am definitely changing my ways honestly Zahara’s life really taught me something honestly and I want to walk away and use it boldly… it taught me that being compassionate goes a long way even Christ taught us to love one another and be each other’s keeper…where there is love and compassion ,Judgment has no space to grow.
    Rest in perfect peace Zahara. Your memories will live on. Resurrection is promised (RIP)

    Somizi is so right. I remember seeing a few episodes of Zaharas reality show and she was going through it shame. Municipality switching off her electricity, her mom needing to navigate loan sharks because they had borrowed money to help Zahara out…she was alone! None of her music industry peers were there (from what I saw). Kubuhlungu shame 😭

May you talk to your friends as whole in the music industry please to stand up and help Sechaba Padi, please guys he was once a friend to you,he done good things for some of you ,let's forget what he said at Lundi s funeral,life goes on guys, find him and help him , I am too broke to help him, I never met him I only listen to his music and so started to like him like the rest of you guys.❤❤❤❤thanks Somisi that speech is an eye opener to me personally.

    Appreciation towards each other is now. Not after death. Love your neighbor as you love yourself.
    Let's do better. God bless your thoughts. Live life in abundance.

    Thanks for your speech you've educted even our government and the nation.
    If we all contributed something she was going to be in a better space.
    We have become a nation of making fun of people downfalls.
    And forgetting tomorrow it could me.
    Let's do better South Africa.
    We all need to apologize as South Africans.
    May her soul rest in perfect peace.
