As fans wait to see how AKA's lifelong friend Khuli Chana will pay tribute to the late rapper, his wife, DJ Lamiez Holworthy, has spoken about how he is dealing with his death.

Kiernan “AKA” Forbes and his friend, chef and author Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane, were gunned down outside a popular Durban restaurant on Friday evening.

On Instagram on Wednesday, Lamiez, who is expecting her first child with Khuli Chana (real name Khulane Morule), said her husband was inconsolable. 

She added that it was hard to deal with a husband in mourning while preparing for the birth of their baby.

“The hardest thing about this all is not being able to take my husband's pain away. Not having the right words to comfort him. To comfort everyone enduring all this pain. All this whilst trying to remain positive and excited for my son. I hate it here,” she said.

Khuli Chana has been mum on social media regarding AKA's death, merely sharing on Instagram stories other people's posts about his friendship with the star.
