ALMOST A YEAR AGO, FAKE NEWS ABOUT DLAMUKA’S DEATH WAS SPREAD

“Dlamuka took ill last year when it was discovered that he had a liver problem,” said Ntombela.

“He would swell all over. He was healed and looked to be recovering well. But this year, he had an unfortunate incident.

“He fell into a sewerage hole at Ulundi Plaza and was rushed to Ngwelezane hospital. It was discovered that he dislocated pelvic joints.

“He was then sent to Inkosi Albert Luthuli Hospital for an operation. But it was discovered he couldn’t be operated on because his blood pressure levels were too high.”
