Flabba's mother has revealed Whatsapp messages between herself and her son two months before he died.

Agatha Habedi said she believes jealousy was the motive for Sindi Manqele killing her son, Nkululeko 'Flabba' Habedi.

She showed eNCA a Whatsapp message that Flabba had forwarded to her after a fight he had with Manqele.

Part of it reads: "I don't even know why I trusted your cheating ass anyways - after all you cheated on Lesego's mom with me and god knows who else! ...I really hope these hoes make you happy and have fun telling your daughter how you cheated on a woman that was nothing but nice to all your family..."

Manqele was apparently livid that Habedi had allegedly cheated on her. According to Agatha, Manqele had come across flirtatious messages between her son and another woman. Flabba then pleaded with his mother to talk to Manqele and help him get her back. At the end of the conversation he had with his mother, he said 'she is gonna kill me,' with his mother jokingly replying 'you are dead meat.'

Agatha added that she last spoke to Manqele two months ago.

"I really loved her. I still do. I don't know what possessed her," she said.
