“Why was he allowed to carry the casket without jacket” Mapintsha’s old picture divides opinion

An old picture which had Mapintsha carrying a casket at the funeral of an old friend has raises questions on social media.

Their concerns were the fact that this man was carrying the coffin without even wearing a jacket, which they believe that it is wrong in terms of culture.


 

However, some people have defended him saying that in some cultures, it is not mandatory to wear a jacket when you’re going to carry the coffin, but this is something that a lot of South Africans have been debating on.

The late musician is one man who loved other musicians to a point where he would even attend their funerals just to show support to their families because he would celebrate music with them when they were still alive.

South Africans do not care if you are still alive or dead, but when they want answers, they will not stop until they receive them.
