This past Sunday marked the first anniversary of the death of Mandla “Mampintsha” Maphumulo, who passed away after a stroke.
The widow, Babes Wodumo, a gqom sensation, took to her timeline to express her disbelief that a year had passed and that she continued to struggle with the loss.
She recently got a tattoo in his honour and posted a cryptic message on social media about feeling abandoned by those around her.
Babes requested comfort and embraces from anyone who saw her on the anniversary, acknowledging the pain of losing her husband on December 24th.
“Sometimes abanye abantu show amaTrue colours abo, okumnandi unkulukulu wam uyanglwela and uyabaveza abantu abangithanda ngokweqiniso, and abangiPretendayo (some people show you their true colours, what’s nice is that my God fights for me and reveals to me those that truly love me and don’t pretend).

“Anyway, kusasa is the 24th of December, a very painful day for me as it’s the day I lost umyeni wam (my husband) Shimora. Satane simshaye ingqondo eWest”. Ozongbona kusasa cele angnike amaHuggies (Whoever sees me tomorrow please give me hugs),” she wrote.
