The broadcaster passed away on Sunday in Bulawayo, sending shockwaves through Zimbabwe's media community. ZANU-PF Secretary General Jacob Mudenda announced the government's decision to provide US$10,000 for the burial expenses. The family will receive support through the Bulawayo Provincial offices for funeral arrangements. Sikhonjwa earned recognition as the "Ndebele Rockstar" and served as a respected cultural ambassador. The media personality will receive commemoration at Bulawayo Amphitheatre on Friday before the final burial proceedings. His remains will be laid to rest on Saturday at Mlozweni Village under Chief Mzimuni in Gwanda. Mudenda confirmed burial location details and family contact procedures through official channels.
