A special voice: Lulu Dikana mourned by fans

This morning Mzansi woke up to the news that singer, Lulu Dikana had passed away. So far all that we know is that she died of a “short illness” as described by multiple sources, although eNCA believe it could be tied to her long struggle with oesophageal perforation, a disease that comes about as a result of a puncture in the oesophagus.

Dikana’s death has really hit music lovers hard, especially considering some of the big strides she took in her career this year, not least the opportunity to open for US RnB star, John Legend. 

Tributes have been pouring in from around the country as fans, music lovers and local celebrities all share their condolences for Lulu Dikana, her sister, Zonke and the rest of the family. See some of the biggest reactions from social media below:
