Anele Tempe’s father: We’ve never judged Kiernan. We demonstrated our love for him to his very last day
The family of late budding chef and Kiernan “AKA” Forbes’s fiancee Anele “Nellie” Tembe, has reacted to the cold-blooded murder of rapper Kiernan Forbes, better known as AKA.
In 2021, AKA’s girl Nellie Tembe fell from a hotel in Cape Town & died. Hotel staff claimed they heard arguments from their room but AKA claimed she jumped. Police dismissed the case. She is a Durban native from a wealthy home. AKA visited Durban and posted his location on IG.💔

The rapper was gunned down in Durban outside Wish on Florida Road. Circumstances surrounding the shooting are still unknown but CCTV footage has been widely shared across social media showing the shooting occurred and AKA’s last moments.
There have been a lot of speculations and theories on social media about the rapper’s passing. Some social media users have accused the Tembe family of allegedly having a hand in the rapper’s death.
AKA story is crazy. Many fingers are pointing at his deceased fiance, Nellie's dad, a rich and powerful man.
Another lesson that you don't mess with people's family or kids, and think that nothing will happen to you. Ukikataliwa kubali. Songa mbele.

Nelli died in April 2021 after falling to her death from the 10th floor of the Pepperclub Hotel in Cape Town. The circumstances around her death were under investigation, but the case has not been concluded.
Nellie Tembe’s father, Moses Tembe, told Daily Sun that he would like to visit AKA’s family rubbished rumors circulating on social media that they may be involved in the murder of the superstar.
“We’ve never judged Kiernan. We demonstrated our love for him to his very last day. We are saddened by this sad eventuality as it robs of us an opportunity we have been waiting for so patiently to vindicate our daughter in court or in an inquest.

I would like to visit their family and convey my condolence in person. As a parent, I feel deep pain for Kiernan’s parents (Tony and Lynn Forbes,) his daughter Kairo and the family at large.” During Anele’s funeral in 2021, Moses Tembe said that Anele would not have considered suicide until she turned 21.
“As Anele’s father, I hereby state categorically that Anele was neither suicidal nor did she commit suicide. Ladies and gentlemen, we need to understand the forces that put us in a situation that we find ourselves.
“Of course, we must as a matter of extreme priority deal with the scourge that evils our youth, alcohol, and drugs,” he said.
