Yanga Chief's speech most definitely resonated with the room as he shared some of fondest memories with AKA over time. An emotional Yanga Chief did not hold back to show pain, weakness and vulnerable as a proper send off to his best friend.
What really moved the masses was the conversation they once had about his relationship with Nadia Nakai. Although both AKA and Nadia Nakai have only been dating for a long minute but their love story was very inspiring to scores of their fans and followers.
"To Nadia, the first time I asked Kiernan how was your relationship going, he did not hesitate to tell me "bra this is it for me, Nadia saved my life" I thank you for loving my bru and bringing back to him after we thought we have lost him the first time. He loved your so much" said Yanga Chief

Yanga Chief proceeded to ask the room to bow their heads to share a prayer to lift up Kiernan Forbes spirit to the Almighty. Event though he admitted that as a Xhosa man he doesn't show emotion most of the time, but around AKA he could be himself. Yanga Chief added AKA broke down all those walls for them to be their authentic self around each other.
"Kiernan was a blessing to all of us but in this moment I find his soul being a blessing to himself. I the same way he offered me prayer in the time of need I would like to do the same for him. May we please bow our heads and pray. Father, in the Mighty name of Jesus we lift up Kiernan in prayer, as we remember his life and the impact he had to those around him. Heavenly Father we ask for your mercy and grace upon Kiernan as he begin his journey to his eternal life" Yanga Chief's prayer
Nadia strength to you, Kairo strength to you, Forbes family strength to youπππππ
