Today, family members and members of his former Afrisa International Band will fly to Kinshasa with the body ahead of the burial on Monday next week.
Meanwhile, popular Congolese musician Kanda Bongoman, who is in Kenya for a number of performances, has said he would dedicate his shows to Tabu Ley. Since his arrival in Kenya, Kanda and his backing group have been rehearsing some of Tabu Ley’s songs like Muzina.
Fallen music icon Tabu Ley will be buried on Monday in his DR Congo home.
The musician died in Brussels last week and funeral arrangements began yesterday when his family, friends, fans and well-wishers converged at the funeral home to pay their last respects.
