Koyo Bala, 36-year old musician and socialite has surrendered to a battle with cancer after 3years.He died on monday evening at groote sichuur hospital in Cape Town, South Africa surrounded by his sisters.
The 36-year-old singer was part of pop gay trio, 3Sum - a pop band comprised of Bala‚ Amstel Maboa and the deceased Jeff Moyo, who had a hit with 'Butterfly'. They were known in the entertainment industry as activists for gay rights.
According to his cousin, Linda Bala‚ the gay musician was "admitted to hospital on Sunday around 4:00pm after he complained about pain".This was 2 hours since landing in Cape Town from a trip to Johannesburg‚ where he was staying with his long-term friend and group member‚ Maboa.
"We suspect that his kidney had failed and he relapsed. When he came back from Johannesburg he went to see his doctor and was immediately admitted‚ but this morning we were told that akasekho (he is no more)‚" said the cousin.
In 2011‚ Bala disclosed that he was HIV-positive to the country‚ a decision that cost him his job.
In 2014 he was diagnosed with anal cancer and decided to move back home last year where he started chemotherapy - a journey he widely
shared in images‚ videos and messages with his social media followers.
His last tweet about his illness was on February
reads: "I pray 2 God everyday 2 help me pass this cancer #itshard#pains#wontgiveup#canwinthisbattle #cantsleepofpains".
Bala's bandmate, Moyo died in 2010‚ reportedly from HIV/Aids-related complications.
Bala's family are yet to make funeral
arrangements but said they were looking to burying the musician next week.
