ANC Secretary-General and Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula has joined others in visiting the home ofin Bryanston, north of Johannesburg, to pay his respects following the star’s death. Forbes was gunned down on Friday evening outside a restaurant in Durban along his friend Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane.Mbalula says he met with the rapper’s family to convey his condolences.

“It is a difficult moment. We are here to express our condolences, at a personal level, because to some of us, he was a friend, and he was our young brother. We were very close too, in bad and difficult times, and but also we’re here to express our condolences as a party that he cherished, he criticised and he stood by in difficult moments, when it is not fashionable to support the ANC.

A team of detectives from the police’s organised crime unit is investigating the motive for the killing and a manhunt is unde rway for the killers.“Kiernan was always there even taking his kid for a holiday through his busy schedule and for me, I also learned a lot, that it’s very important for us to be present to our kids. That was one of the most outstanding things which I’ve always admired about him, loving his daughter.
