Music legend Mbuyiselo 'DJ Choc' Ngwenya was laid to rest on Saturday.

DJ Choc died a week ago after a short illness. Hundreds of mourners gathered at the Vosloorus Civic Centre in Ekurhuleni to bid a final farewell to him.

Among the mourners were award-winning house DJ Cleo, comedian Isaac Gampu, Mike Maile, DJ Terance, Lucky and Nhlanhla Shabangu.

DJ Choc's daughter Lady Du delivered a heartfelt tribute to her late father and expressed gratitude for all the support the family has received.

“I just ask when you see us in the streets please give us a hug — just a hug, I appreciate everyone who's here today to comfort us as a family during this period. To my daddy, you've fought your battle and we know you loved everyone. I pray that God receives you well,” she said.

Deep house DJ Terance Molefe said: “I am wishing comfort and peace for his family during this challenging time. May they find resilience and hope to navigate the days ahead. DJ Choc R.I.P.”
