Fans flock to home of 'resurrected' musician

The "resurrection" of multi-award winning maskandi musician Khulekani Kwakhe "Mgqumeni" Mseleku has caused widespread confusion, with even close family members arguing about whether he has returned from the dead.

Mgqumeni, who apparently died in December 2009 after drinking a poisonous concoction he got from a traditional healer, returned to his home in Mquthu, near Dundee, in northern KwaZulu-Natal, on Saturday last week.

Word of his return caused thousands of followers to flock - from as far away as Gauteng and the Free State - to his home, where the frail-looking muso was shown to the public for the first time yesterday.

"I am Mgqumeni. And I know that some of you might not believe, but yes, it's true . it's me," he greeted his fans.

"I have been suffering a lot at the place where I was kept with zombies. It was hell there and I am so grateful that I was able to free myself and return to my family and you, my supporters. I promise to continue singing once I gather enough strength," he said.

You know, when I was reading the article I kept thinking..."Mmmkay...maybe he just did the Bobby Fischer thing and disappeared" then he said zombies and I was all....:ack:

No, it's all true. I'd take you there, but the zombies don't like your kind. ;)

The man claiming to be a maskandi artist brought back from the dead has appeared in court following police questioning over the weekend.

The bizarre story started last week after the man, named as Sibusiso John Gcabashe, claimed to be the late award-winning artist Khulekani Kwakhe “Mgqumeni” Mseleku on Thursday. He said, “I have been suffering a lot at the place where I was kept with zombies.”

“It was hell there and I am so grateful that I was able to free myself and return to my family and you, my supporters.”, he was reported as saying. “I know there are some people who doubt that I am Mgqumeni. You must know that none can pretend to be someone he is not.”

Gcabashe, 28, appeared in the Nquthu Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday, KwaZulu-Natal, and will remain in police custody. His case was remanded to February 14 for a bail hearing.
