Speaking on the cause of his death, Zola revealed that Siyanda had been in a coma since February 15, after he was injured in a house burglary.
Zola said Siya was due for a surgery on Monday with the hope that he would recover.
Sad to announce the passing of my dear friend Siyanda Sesimani @SiyaSesimani in hospital. He has served on Thula’s Vine, Ikhaye, Soul City, iSithembiso & The Estate. He was a son, a brother, a friend and a Father. May his beautiful soul rest in peace #RIPSiyaSesimani 💔💔😭😭😭 pic.twitter.com/d7rUw6Wfzn

“There was a doctor outsourced to operate on his head on Monday, which was his birthday. He was in ICU but if he came back, he would have never been the same Siya that we knew before.” he said.
“I don’t know if it was a burglary because it just feels personal. Our industry is filled with jealousy … but I don’t know. It’s confusing. He was kind, soft, a gentle soul with few friends.”
The love you had for your daughter was commendable. You were a present Father I pray I never find the people that did this to you coz I don’t know what I will do. It’s emotionally, mentally, physically draining to write RIP every week. I am NOT okay @siyasesimani #RIPSiyaSesimani pic.twitter.com/zy2VZYQvH1
