Colleagues, friends and fans have taken to social media to pay tribute to renowned pastor and Ukhozi FM correspondent Dr SD Gumbi. 

In a statement shared on social media on July 14, the Assemblies of God, Back to God Mpumalanga Highveld Regional Council revealed he died at the age of 66 after a long illness. 

Former politician and Power959 presenter Mbuyiseni Ndlozi and gospel star Hle were among the public figures who expressed their sadness about his passing.

Mbuyiseni said: “I have received the most devastating news. Dr SD Gumbi has passed on. Death is so greedy. My heart is shattered. And yet he will insist he has gone to be with the Lord. May his loving wife be comforted, his children and close relatives. Above all, the whole body of Christ. Usehambile uAmen.”
