The controversial businessman slash music promoter was laid to rest today in Bronkhorspruit. He succumbed to death after complaining of a fever last weekend.

According to reports Mkwaiwa was in the company of friends, who included fellow Mpumalanga based entrepreneur, Jacob Mnisi.

Mkwaiwa was traditionally married to musician and socialite Tina Dlangwana. The pair was undergoing a divorce at the time of his death. He was also married to Tina Jaxa with whom he has two children.

Mkwaiwa made a full recovery from a near fatal accident which occurred last year. His car was written off and he was bedridden for several months. After his recovery, he gave an interview to Drum magazine about getting back on his feet, calling his improvement 'miraculous.'


Mkwaiwa was a Mpumalanga based businessman who also worked as a music promoter.  He was previously in a relationship with controversial singer Kelly Khumalo which apparently ended over his infidelity.
