It is with great sadness to learn the passing of Dr Mbongeni Ngema, a legendary playwright, actor, musician and composer.
Ngema is known for his popular song "Stimela saseZola", his multi-award winning play Sarafina and other productions such as Asinamali, Woza Albert, The House of Shaka, etc.
He has been working with us as a committee member for our Annual Indigenous Languages Indaba. It has been a great journey working with him.
May he rest in peace.
