According to the former Zifa Southern Region vice chairman Morgan Dube, Khumalo, who had been unwell for some time, passed on just after 4PM yesterday at his family house in Chinotimba suburb in Victoria Falls.
“He has rested, yes, but this boy was my youngster and I’m deeply pained following his death,” said Dube last night.
Dube, who is the Highlanders Victoria Falls Supporters’ Chapter chairman, said funeral arrangements will be announced later today but Khumalo was likely to be buried in Victoria Falls.
