It's very unfortunate that the late Mr Shabalala was part of the group which defied liberation struggle and acted at variance with cultural boycott aimed at bringing down the apartheid regime. Nonetheless rest in peace Sir.

He's doing what is good at😂

Can those who can bury families do so ..Ramaophosa and government officials can be part of funeral by giving speeches and support but not use money tax payers money as we still have electricity bills to pay..etc RIPJosephShabalala

Eish.millions spent on someone who can bury himself

As usual Amazulu are superior in this country.

He could have done the same with boxing legend Peter Terror Mathebula.

Well deserved! Let's hope his music will enjoy rotation with all SABC radio and TV stations. ArtsCultureSA NathiMthethwaSA PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa GautengSACR GautengProvince David_Makhura

You would swear this is the only task the president of the state has on their job description 🤣🤣🤣

The state funeral cost is exorbitant to say the least. Why was Johnny Clegg not afforded the same dignity. Let's treat all people equally. CyrilRamaphosa The state is struggling if you feel so generous why don't you offer to pay for his funeral instead of forcing us to do it.

He is excelling when it comes to state funerals as if he's using his billions

That’s the only thing Cyril delivers, state funerals. He doesn’t make a mistake but come to proper service deliveries, dololo

EFF has a tendency of hijacking and taking over high profile funerals.. Are the RedBerets going to do same at ladysmithblackmambazo Shabalala's funeral?

That's what he's good at, declaring state funerals always!
