“In the first-ever wide-ranging exclusive interview by Moses Tembe the father of late AKA’s fiance, the late Anele Tembe, speaks to me on the 3rd anniversary of his daughter’s death and the long wait for answers on how her body came to be found on the ground from the 10th floor of a Cape Town hotel,” the host of the interview, Chriselda Lewis said.Multi award winning journalist and senior reporter Chriselda Lewis summarised some of the points Moses stated during the interview, which was that the Tembe family wanted AKA in the court box as either a witness or suspect.
