Lwazi Madonsela, Malwandle’s brother, “sister-wife,” and fellow Umndeni star, told the Daily Sun what they need help with.
“We require funds to transport us from our home in Umlazi to the cemetery. We’ll also need to rent the essentials like tents, seats, and tables.

Lwazi also discussed the events that led up to Malwandle’s killing.
“Malwandle became ill, had a headache, and was hospitalized for a week.” They stated he suffered a stroke, and they called me on Sunday to tell me dad was no longer alive. He had never shown any indicators of a stroke previously, and it came on unexpectedly,” he explained.
Lwazi thanked all who cared for Malwandle and expressed his gratitude.
“Thank you for caring about him.” I had no idea there were so many people who adored him. I apologize to those who have been greatly affected by his death; please accept his passing and allow him to rest in peace.
He remarked, “We’ll miss his joking, how he talks to his people, and how close we were as brothers.”
Malwandle will be laid to rest in his hometown of Umlazi, KZN.
