Reading Time: < 1 minute

The leader of the Nazareth Baptist Church Vela Shembe will be laid to rest on Sunday in uMthwalume, south coast of Durban.

Shembe died at his home last Friday after a short illness.

The High Court in Durban had declared the Inkosi the rightful leader of the Shembe church, but Mduduzi Shembe has appealed the decision.

“We are expecting a total number of 10 000 people who will be attending the funeral . The KwaZulu-Natal premier is our main guest he will be speaking. The proceedings will last around about 6 to 7 in the evening,” says the churches spokesperson Nkululeko Mthethwa.
