alongside his long-time friend and manager, Tebello “Tibs” Motoane.
AKA’s father, Tony Forbes, says although they are finding it difficult as a family, they have comfort in the love and support from his friends, family and fans. “Kiernan wasn’t just loved by us as a family, his talent created his own community. We all know he left a legacy which extends to the nation at large. And the friends that he had have been at our side since Friday evening, supporting us.”AKA will be laid to rest in Johannesburg on Saturday. A memorial service will be held at the Sandton Convention Centre on Friday afternoon followed by what the family is calling a private provincial funeral on Saturday.
Saturday’s memorial service at the Sandton Convention Centre will be open to the public. Tickets are available on webtickets.co.za.
