As she faces yet another wave of allegations regarding Senzo Meyiwa’s puzzling death, Kelly Khumalo seems to have beefed up her security.
The songstress was seen performing with a bodyguard watching her closely at the Dundee July. As expected, the public had opinions.
Throughout the years, Kelly Khumalo has worked hard to become one of South Africa’s most cherished vocalists, and her discography deeply resonates with a diverse audience. Her undeniably powerful vocal ability has also set her apart from the rest, garnering her a reputation as one of the best to ever do it.
However, the unexpected death of the much-loved Orlando Pirates goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa marked a shift in Kelly’s career, one that would go on to haunt her name for years to come.
With Senzo’s death occurring at Kelly’s house in Vosloorus, and the singer being among those who were present at the time of the incident, fingers quickly started pointing towards her as the mastermind behind this crime that had the country at a standstill.
In efforts to put an end to what she had deemed baseless accusations, the Empini hitmaker took to her social media to reveal that she has had enough, and urged anyone who believes that she is guilty of a crime to take the necessary steps to get her to account.

This past weekend saw the singer becoming the topic of some social media conversations once again. Users reacted to her being seen with a bodyguard who watched her closely during her Dundee July performance.
Naturally, this has given rise to a few theories and speculations, including the fact that the security is a precautionary measure, considering the resurgence of some allegations.
While some users have come out to empathise with Kelly as they believe that she has undeservedly garnered some hate from the public, others have highlighted the strangeness of the whole situation. They believe that if the singer’s life was really in danger, she would avoid such crowded places altogether.
Some members of the public have also accused Kelly of using Senzo’s death as a way to bolster her own career and keep herself relevant.
