Zahara’s sisters struggling to come to terms with singer’s death

Zahara’s sisters, Lumka and Bandezwa Mkutukana, are struggling to come to terms with the death of the award-winning singer. As reported by The South African website, the popular musician passed away in hospital after suffering from liver complications – and her siblings were by her side every step of the way. She was 36. We had a lot of plans during her time in hospital and we really had hoped she was going to recover.

“She was just signed up by a new recording company and was planning to go overseas in February. Her future was promising and I can say her future was too bright, she was favoured by God. Lumka added: “It’s painful that Bulelwa has left us, we don’t know who’s going to make us laugh now.

“I remember the week before the weekend she was admitted to hospital she was here with us at home visiting, and she said to our kids she was not going to sleep in her bed and she took the mattress to join the kids. Even though she did not have her own kids she loved our kids as though they were hers.
