She has some of the biggest songs in the country and is the daughter of veteran singer ,Winnie Khumalo. She but has also cemented herself as a force. Rethabile Khumalo recently fell victim to an alleged booking scam in Botswana.

CANCELLED

The Umlilo singer ]shared that she was booked to perform at a Botswana concert, The Night Of Stars, but had to pull out due to money issues. "I just wanted to clear the rumour that I will not be performing at The Night Of Stars in Botswana because the people that are behind the show did not live up to expectations of the contract," she says. "They used my picture in the poster without my consent and without paying anything. Even now, they are still giving us a hard time."

OVERCOMING

Last year, Rethabile cheated death when she almost lost her life. Last year, she released her single titled Ngzok' nik' uthando, where she is thankful to have made it out alive after many hardships, includinga suicide attempt. "I made it out alive when other people didn't, and I am grateful. This song is giving thanks to God for my life and gratitude to everyone who showed me love," Rethabile said. "Since that accident, my life has been filled with nothing but blessings." Rethabile does not regret what she did, as it was a wake-up call for her to appreciate life. "At that moment, I was feeling emotional. I was down and depressed and I saw death as the only solution. I left my house, went to the highway jumped in front of the fastest-moving car, and woke up in hospital." Rethabile said that when she woke up, she was disappointed to still find herself alive. "I was still going through the emotions. But it is only later that I realised that I should not have done what I did," she says. "The worse could have happened. I could have killed someone or people. I am just glad it did not go that far.?
