Vuyo’s close friend and former Morning Live co-presenter Leanne Manas‚ who worked with the charismatic presenter for a decade‚ remembered her friend with a touching tribute.

“4 years ago today you left us. Just thought I’d throw one of your famous lines out there ‘Mintirho ya vulavula’ (work is opening) — never been more relevant‚” she said.

Leanne previously told TshisaLIVE that the day Vuyo died will always be a sad day for her.
