This past Saturday the indoor Sports Centre in Ladysmith was filled to capacity as fans, friends and family gathered to bid farewell to Ladysmith Black Mambazo founder, Joseph Shabalala.
In attendance were all the members of the group who had returned home from a tour in America to attend the state funeral. The group includes four of Shabalala’s sons.
It was here that they took to the stage to bid their founder farewell the best way they knew how.
Shabalala died at the age of 78 in a Pretoria hospital after a long illness on 11th February.
