Rest in peace Cont Mhlanga

-

MAY you allow me space to share my message of condolence with the Mhlanga family. I also pass my message to fellow Bulawayo artistes and every Zimbabwean artiste including foreignbas­ed ones, ngisithi sikhala sonke madoda likhotheme iqhawe.

This is after the death of an arts director and playwright Cont Mhlanga — an arts legend who has left a wide gap in the industry which will be difficult to fill.

During our time at Amakhosi, we used to call him “God Father”, a gifted man who wasn’t selfish when it comes to experience sharing.

I am giving you 18-gun salute.

Rest in peace Baba Mhlanga. Sizahlala sikukhumbu­la ngezenzo zakho ezinhle

Zulu Mpofu, poet/imbongi, Esigodini.
