The late Mandoza's wife Mpho Tshabalala allegedly confronted his manager, Kevin Ntaopane, over a donation made by former SABC chief operations officer Hlaudi Motsoeneng towards the cost of the funeral.

It is alleged that Ntaopane did not declare the donation, believed to have been more than R20000.

Sunday World understands that Mpho and Mandoza's friend and Power FM sports presenter Thabiso Mosia went to Ntaopane's home in Noordgesig, Soweto, two weeks after the funeral in September last year and asked him why he did not declare the donation.

Motsoeneng confirmed that he made a contribution to the family through Ntaopane but said he did not want to get involved in the dispute.

"I can't disclose the figure. It's a family matter that should be dealt with by the family themselves," he said.
