Rich Mahogany joins #JusticeforAKA, asks who had the means to kill AKA
Since AKA was gunned down, the #JusticeforAKA movement has gained momentum on Twitter in the hopes of intensifying the search for the murderers.
Music producer Rich Mahog joined the hashtag movement by posting questions of his own that he identified would help the police on which direction to take.
“The question is a very simple one. Who hated Kiernan enough to have him killed? Who had motive? Who has resources? I think if we can get those answers we will be closer. Who did he upset? We need answers,” he tweeted.
In his mentions his followers shared their own ideas of who might've been behind the brutal murder.
“And the sad part is that the longer it takes, the more they tamper with evidence and even if a new investigating team comes they won't find anything to work [with] basically Kiernan won't find any justice and we can't do anything about it,” replied one.

On Tuesday, the police minister addressed the media at the ministerial imbizo in Westbury, Johannesburg.
“We acknowledge that it’s not with the speed that the community and nation would have loved to see us reacting, but mark this space. We are cracking the case,” Cele said.
AKA was shot dead at a popular restaurant in Durban's Florida Road. The shooting also resulted in the death of AKA's lifelong friend, entrepreneur, celebrity chef and cookbook author Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane.
The minister said they were making headway in the case.
There is also a petition titled “Justice for AKA Kiernan Forbes” that was created on Change.org and calls out KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Lt-Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi and national commissioner Fannie Masemola.
