Simphiwe Ngema dedicates song to late husband

Simphiwe Ngema has released a song dedicated to late her husband Dumi Masilela titled Thanda Ngempela. This comes ahead the second anniversary of his tragic death following an attempted highjacking.

In a lengthy post on social media, Simphiwe shared that losing her husband soon after they tied the knot was difficult saying in part: “Losing Dumi two months after our wedding was worse than my worst nightmare and after he passed away I was afraid that people would forget him, so I did everything I could to keep his memory alive but at some point, I realized that holding on hurts so much more.”

Simphiwe also shared that she penned her new single in an effort to finally let him go saying: “It’s time to let go and this is my final goodbye. Eternal crush forever and always.”
