ZAHARA: EXPOSED: She lied to the whole country!: Rebecca Malope is a fake name

Rebecca Malope’s Real Name Revelation Fuels Speculation in Zahara Death Investigation
On October 8, 2024, South Africans were surprised to learn that gospel icon Dr Rebecca Malope’s real name is Batsogile Lovederia Malope, a stage name revelation that sparked widespread amusement on social media, with users expressing mock betrayal over the singer’s 30-year use of *Rebecca.” However, this lighthearted moment has taken a serious turn, as sources suggest the leak may be linked to the ongoing investigation into the death of Afro-soul singer Zahara, real name Bulelwa Mkutukana, who passed away at 36 on December 11, 2023, at Olievedale Netcare Hospital in Johannesburg. Zahara’s family, suspecting foul play, opened an inquest at Roodepoort police station the same day, prompted by conflicting autopsy reports– one citing “natural causes,” the other listing the cause as “under investigation”–and rumors of possible poisoning. Some family members believe the timing of Malope’s name revelation was a calculated move to distract from Zahara’s case, stirring speculation within the music community. Social media initially

reflected grief over Zahara’s death and playful shock at Malope’s real name, but recent posts show growing public interest in a potential connection, with calls for clarity in the police investigation. Authorities have confirmed the inquest is active, and as both stories unfold, South Africans await answers about Zahara’s tragic passing and the curious timing of Malope’s name leak.
