Many South African celebrities are devastated by Lumko Johnson’s passing because actress Samkelo Ndlovu hasn’t posted anything on Instagram since the talented individual passed away. The Rhythm City Actress is not taking it well after her last post about him and their memories.
Samkelo took some time to process Lumko Johnson’s passing. She wrote a touching tribute to the late TV host, whose passing was reported last week, on Instagram. Lumko “Johnson” Leqela’s death was reported in a public statement announced by his family. They revealed that they spent a brief time in the hospital before hearing the news on September 14th, 2022.
Lumko made his public debut as a young teen on the well-known SABC 1 YoTV platform. He later developed a career in television broadcasting and general media. According to the statement, Lumko was an “Accomplished TV & Radio Super Producer, Actor, Writer, and Big Deal in Most Spaces.” “The family will provide information regarding the funeral arrangements. According to the statement, the family requests that the public and the media respect their privacy as they cope with this difficult loss. Local celebrities remembered Lumko Johnson as tributes from his friends, colleagues in the industry, and internet users flooded in.
Samkelo recently wrote a message about Lumko’s passing, which she claimed to be broken. She admitted that it had taken her a long time to find the words or the ability to write something and that she did so with a heavy, broken heart. She continued. “Lumko, I’m so sad. I’ll never get to see you again in this life, and that makes my heart hurt. That whenever a song starts, I won’t ever hear your silly laugh or tidbits of interesting music trivia. Your sincerity and concern for me that when I answer the phone as you always do, I won’t hear you say my full name, Samkelo Ndlovu. You experienced the same heartache as me when I lost Gavin and Jamie. Who should be there for me after this? THIS ??”
Samkelo added the following to her message: She referred to Lumko as her true north because he was always willing to broaden her eyes with his loving candour. She thinks the LGBTQIA+ community has lost a true soldier and activist of the movement, as well as one of the best screenwriters and actors in our industry. Radio has also lost one of its best producers. She expressed her unending love as she concluded. After the post, supportive messages poured in, and she has since vanished from Instagram.
