DJ Sumbody’s family members and friends are left shattered by his death.

On Sunday, the family confirmed that he was killed by unknown gunmen who sprayed his car with bullets while he was on his way from a gig in Joburg.


The DJ’s aunt who drove from Limpopo to the family home in Danville in Pretoria West after hearing the news of his death opened up to Daily Sun.

“We are heartbroken. Our wounds will never heal,” she said.

“The people who did this did it out of jealousy.”

The aunt spoke well of the late DJ whose real name is Oupa John Sefoka.

“He respected the elderly. He was always available to help family,” said Motlakaladi.

Martha Kubyana (52) who is a family friend said she got a call in the morning from DJ Sumbody’s mother telling her that her son was shot.
“His mother was shattered when she was talking on the phone,” said Martha.

“The teachers who are teaching with his mother are in great shock.”

However, the police are still investigating as the motive behind the fatal shooting is still unknown.

“The police are still investigating, but we will release more information in due course,” Oupa’s family spokeswoman Mmanake Mokitimi said.
