MOTHERS OF FLABBA’S CHILDREN SPEAK OUT
Manqele’s interview and public appearances have opened up wounds for Flabba’s children and their mothers.
Mpho told SowetanLIVE that Manqele’s interview has affected her daughter who has been going to therapy since the musician’s passing.
“My daughter saw the interview and it affected her. Remember, she has been seeing a therapist since her father died. She was close to her father and she has been struggling with accepting his death.
She also revealed that her daughter visited Manqele while she was in prison to get some closure and her questions answered.
“I am also still healing from Flabba’s death; why can’t Sindisiwe leave him alone? I just want him to be allowed to rest in peace. I don’t understand why she is not doing a documentary about herself because she enjoys the spotlight.
“We watched on TV as she announced her graduation, meanwhile my daughter has completed matric and has no money to continue with her education. Flabba was taking care of his kids and they had to downgrade and go to public schools when he died.”
Shole, who has a 10-year-old son with Flabba _ who was three years old when his dad died — also shared Mpho’s sentiments. She slammed Manqele for trying to “cash in” using Flabba’s name.
“We are still in a healing process. We have teamed up as mothers for the benefit of the Flabba’s kids. We speak and help each other where we can. He was three years old when his father died. Now he was able to watch the podcast and listen to Sindisiwe trying to cash in on Flabba’s name. He was upset by the interview.
“I saw people comparing Sindisiwe to Jub-Jub but the truth is that Jub-Jub has not done a show to enrich himself using someone else’s name. He is doing his own thing. While Sindisiwe wants to be famous using Flabba’s name.”
