South African rapper Kiernan Forbes, known as AKA, was shot and killed outside a restaurant in Durban on February 10, 2023. Forbes was walking to his car with a friend when they were shot, and speculation about the motive for the killing has been rife, with some suggesting it may be related to the death of Forbes' fiancĂŠe, Anele Tembe. Forbes' parents have expressed their sadness, and the police are continuing their investigation. Durban has a history of violence, and CCTV footage showed that Forbes was targeted at close range. Inkabis, paid hitmen who are typically hired by police officers, businesspeople, politicians, or gang members, have recently made a confession about their operations. It is important not to make accusations without verified evidence, as this can cause further distress to the loved ones of Forbes and Tembe.
