Babes recounts last few days with Mampintsha.

At the Durban International Convention Centre on Friday, Babes Wodumo presented an impassioned eulogy for her husband, artist Mandla “Mampintsha” Maphumulo, which caused tears to flow in the audience.

Babes recounts last few days with Mampintsha.

The 40-year-old passed away over the weekend in a hospital in Durban. After having a small stroke, he was admitted to King Edward Hospital for treatment. After that, he was brought to Durdoc Medical Center.

Close friends and family of the celebrity attended the funeral, and many of them spoke or sang tributes.

When Babes stood up and described her husband’s final days while receiving treatment at the hospital, the room fell silent.

“In his last days he said he loved me. I think that’s why I’m this strong.

“What’s tricky is that he left the world without giving me the pin to his phone. Hai, men. Now I stare at it when calls are coming in, unable to answer,” she joked.

Last year, they held their customary wedding.

At the celebrity’s burial service on Thursday, Babes’ father remarked that the two were destined to be together.

“Babes, in this journey of music, was put into it by Mampintsha. He trained and taught her because Babes used to be a model here in eThekwini. Before I know it there goes Babes into music with Mampintsha. I will never forget him because he groomed my child to be the successful star that she is today. He succeeded in doing that.

“There are very few people who, when they love their women, groom them … For that reason he has left her with bread. She is able to sustain herself. Mandla built Babes and for that I’m thankful.”
