Some things are so prophetic. On my way from Sun City Superbowl to the Roberta Flack & Peabo Bryson show to JHB, all my boyfriend and I played was Mama Africa’s “Promise”. This continued till Tuesday when we parted. Then came the news of her departure. Hamba kahle Mama with a capital letter “M”. Forever you will stay in our hearts. Africa and the whole world salute today, Qhawekazi! Ntombi
