Mandoza’s Widow Speaks Out
A Love That Endures
Mandoza, whose real name was Mduduzi Tshabalala, passed away in 2016 after battling cancer, leaving a void in Mpho’s life. Reflecting on their bond, she stated that her connection with him was profound and that she finds peace in cherishing their memories.
Focusing on Family and Legacy
Mpho emphasized her commitment to raising their children and preserving Mandoza’s legacy. She has been actively involved in initiatives celebrating his contributions to South African music, ensuring his impact continues to inspire future generations.
A Personal Decision
Mpho’s decision to remain single is deeply personal and rooted in her love for her late husband. While she continues to mourn his loss, she finds strength in the memories they shared and the family they built together.
Her story resonates with fans who admire her resilience and dedication, reflecting the enduring nature of love and remembrance.
Mduduzi “Mandoza” Tshabalala’s widow, Mpho Tshabalala also revealed to Sowetan in 2023 that she wished he was still alive to witness the spirit of unity his song Nkalakatha has brought to Mzansi.
She adds: “I have mixed feelings about how popular this song is during this time. I find myself asking, ‘Why isn’t Mduduzi [Mandoza’s real name] around to witness how loved his song is?’ I don’t even think he knew what his song has now become.
“Someone even told me that Mandoza was just an inch away from ending apartheid with this song,” she laughs.
Tshabalala also previously revealed that she planned to relaunch Mandoza’s foundation at the beginning of 2024.
Spotify revealed in September 2023 that their platform registered a spike in Mandoza’s catalogue. Especially his hit song Nkalakatha, from August when his BET_Africa biopic debuted.
