After weeks in ICU, Minnie Dlamini-Jones' little brother, Khosini Dlamini has died.
The news of his passing first broke earlier this month, but the family slammed it as fake news as he was in ICU at the time. Khosini had been placed on life support after suffering a brain aneurysm.
Last night, MaBlerh - who is one third of afro soul group, The Nameless Band - tweeted with a heavy heart about his cousin's unfortunate passing, to which many sent their condolences and others questioned if the news were indeed true.

However, in a statement to TshisaLIVE, family spokesperson Tlhogi Ngwato confirmed the news and also expressed that the family has asked for privacy during this time of mourning.
“It is with great sadness we confirm our beloved Khosini passed away yesterday (Thursday) afternoon, after suffering a ruptured brain aneurysm which placed him on life support for 23 days.
“In this time of grief we ask for privacy and the opportunity to celebrate him."
Khosini is survived by his parents Queen and Jabulani Dlamini, and his siblings Maphe and Minenhle.”
