They mentioned how many people considered him a friend who brought joy across South Africa with his unique humor. Everyone will remember his special way of doing stand-up comedy that felt fresh and different.
Dibakwane acted in several popular movies, including "Divorced at 50," "Real Estate Sisters," and "Miseducation."
