Well-known North West radio presenter Kabelo Molopyane will be laid to rest on Thursday.
Molopyane passed away on Sunday at the age of 45. He was an announcer at the SABC’s Motsweding FM at the time of his death.
OFM News previously reported that Molopyane, affectionately known as KB, has been described by many as an astonishing radio presenter with an incredible sense of humour.
The 45-year-old's contribution to radio, sport and the media industry as a whole has been applauded by many, with the SABC having stated that will be greatly missed.
The North West Arts, Culture and Recreation Department also paid its tribute to the family and friends of KB, stating that he played a vital role in promoting sports and the Setswana language in the province.
The provincial Arts Department highlighted that Molopyane was a bubbly and charismatic figure, on and off the airwaves, who touched many lives across the country.
“As we pay tribute to this gentle soul, we wish to register our thanks to him for the excellent role he played in advancing sport not only in the North West, but also [across] the length and breadth of the world wherever the Setswana language is spoken. On a number of occasions, he worked closely with the Department in advancing sport in the Province. One of his recent contributions was presenting the Annual Provincial Sport Awards in Klerksdorp" said the department.
Molopyane's burial will be held at Moshawane Village near Mahikeng from 07:00.
