Sifiso Ncwane’s mother cries for help. The late award-winning gospel musician, Sfiso Ncwane’s mother, Fikile Ncwane wants to do a traditional cleansing ceremony known as Ukumkhuphula to ‘bring home’ the spirit of the gospel musician.

The ceremony of Ukumkhuphula, is practiced mostly by Nguni families who want the spirit of the deceased to be brought back home months or years after the burial. This is normally done after the mourning period has ended.

SHE WANTS FORGIVENESS

She also pleaded with her makoti to forgive her for whatever wrong she did to her. “I am old ngane yami (my child). I don’t know what I did to her.

I am sorry, but God won’t keep me around forever. I would like to see my grandkids because seeing them on social media and TV is not enough,” she added. “As a woman of God, I hope she finds it in her heart to forgive me for whatever I did to her,” she added. She said the last time she saw Ayanda was in December 2016 at the Moses Mabhida Stadium during Sfiso’s funeral. “I was sitting next to her, then after that, it was time to go to the graveyard.

She never greeted me even when I tried to comfort her at the funeral. She just gave me a cold shoulder,” she said. Sfiso’s mother plans to hold the ceremony of Ukumkhuphula at her home in Mthwalume on the South Coast of Durban in the coming months. Attempts to get a comment from Ayanda proved fruitless as she did not answer our calls or WhatsApp messages.

FAMILY FEUD AND POSTPORTEM REPORT DRAMA

According to Fikile, the last time she saw Ayanda was at Sifiso’s funeral on 10 December 2016 at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.

“I was sitting next to her, then after that, it was time to go to the graveyard. She never greeted me even when I tried to comfort her at the funeral. She just gave me a cold shoulder,” she said.

The drama between Ayanda and Sifiso’s family made headlines after his burial. At his funeral, his sister and other relatives walked out of the Moses Mabhida Stadium, as they complained about not being allocated proper seating and having to sit in the rain with other mourners.

A few months later, The Citizen reported that the musician’s mother slammed Ayanda, accusing her of telling doctors not to show her the postmortem report.

In response, Ayanda rubbished the claim, saying: “If family members want to know something they know what to do. I will not disrespect my husband and publish his post-mortem report.”

She further said that after Sfiso’s death she immediately sent a car to fetch his mother so that they could “do everything together.”
