She posted a picture of Zakes' father with a moving tribute to him. She thanked him for being so kind to her and for always making her feel welcome. " I am eternally grateful by the kindness you showed me as your daughter in Law, you truly made me feel like your daughter in love. You had a wicked sense of humour that we will miss dearly, thank you for making me feel like family and welcoming me so warmly. You are with your creator now.
Thank you once again, I am eternally grateful. Love and thoughts are with my husband @zakesbantwini , family and all your loved ones during this very difficult time. I am so sorry my love @zakesbantwini@heazysa and family," Nandi captioned the emotional post.
Nandi commented "You were so good to your father while he was on this earth, please find comfort in knowing you made his stay here more enjoyable. You were a great son to him my love and I’m sure he’s smiling wherever he is, you have gained a powerful ancestor who is with you every step of the way. May you live with no regrets but only fond memories for the beautiful times you had with him. I Love you dearly ."

ZAlebs previously reported that Zakes would be throwing in the towel in the music scene this year. The Grammy nominated star said he would be venturing into other business ventures during his retirement "I am looking forward to focusing on my business both in Cape Town and Durban. I have other business interests taking a toll on me and I will be spending more time with my family," he explained.
The musician said his last offering will be released on the 24th of March 2023 and he is working on features that mean a lot to him. He said his last album will feature with up and coming musicians because he loves working with talented artists who are not well known.
"It's my last album and I have to pull out all the stops to put out the best album ever. I want it to be the best music offering I have ever done. I am going deep into my creative space and asking God to guide me in some of these things. This album means a lot to me because it is what I have done in my entire career. After 15 or 30 years when people mention Zakes Bantwini's last album, I want to go to this one and say that I put out some beautiful music. I want to be proud of it after many years," he revealed.
