Meanwhile Briefly News previously reported that Kiernan 'AKA' Forbes has finally spoken up about the death of his fiancée, Anele 'Nelli' Tembe. In a statement released online, the rapper shared that the passing of “the love of his life” was difficult to process.
“Every day feels like a mountain to climb. I miss Anele so much and I'm heartbroken at the unfulfilled life we had planned together.”
The rapper went on to say that the tragedy took a toll on his mental health.
“Insinuations and innuendos made on my personhood have made it even more difficult to process, and the strain our families have taken is unspeakable.”
Forbes said that he has decided to retreat from the public in order to find some clarity over the situation. He went on to say that he would be handing over his social media accounts to his management for the time being. “Please respect our privacy as we go through our grieving process, and please continue to keep our families in your prayers.” AKA thanked all those who have been in his corner since the tragedy: his mother and father, the Tembe family, political allies and his Megacy fan base.
