“The people who bought Senzo Meyiwa’s house after the Khumalos left did not stay long,” says a passing neighbour, “they said the house was haunted.”
Interestingly, The Sunday Independent reported that hours after Senzo Meyiwa was killed, his girlfriend Kelly Khumalo and her sister Zandile allegedly approached a nearby sangoma and asked for ritual cleansing.
Days later, the sisters’ mother, Gladness, allegedly also drove to the same sangoma’s house accompanied by Zandile and her then boyfriend Longwe Twala (music producer, Chicco Twala’s son), who is said to have told the traditional healer that he “couldn’t sleep at night because a dead person was strangling him”.
