The memorial service of Tibz Tebello Motsoane who was slain with AKA outside WISH restaurant in Durban was held on Thursday evening at Sacred Heart College in Observatory, Johannesburg.
Speaking at the memorial, Tibz’s best friend Sthe Mabanga explained why the chef and music mogul was in Durban that evening.
“Tibz flew to Durban to be with me on my birthday,” Sthe shared.
“We spoke at about 18h30, I was at Umhlanga. I said Tibz come here, we are all having drinks here. He says, ‘no I have to see Kiernan’ and then I’m going to come to you).
“I spoke to him again, probably about 21h00. I called Aubrey, who was supposed to go meet him, and when Aubrey and I spoke I told him to come where we were in Umhlanga, Tibz is going to come and join us here, don’t go to Florida.
“Aubrey took an Uber and he came and then the news just started streaming in, we felt like the world had stopped, nothing made sense. We stopped everything we were doing and we drove,” said the best friend.
