Just last month, AKA commemorated 4 months since the passing of his fiancée Nelli Tembe.
Briefly News reported that Tembe passed away over four months ago after falling from their hotel room in Cape Town.
Pouring his heart out on social media, the rapper said:
“4 months to this day. … it never goes away. Every day I pray for her, myself and our families. I will never be the same person I was … but I will do the best I can with the gift and opportunity of life that I still have left. Thank You to everyone who has stuck by me and our respective families … you know who you are.”
