Renowned publicist and HHP’s widow Lerato Sengadi, has revealed that neither she nor her family received an invite from her late husband’s family to the unveiling of his tombstone at the weekend.
On Tuesday, Lerato took to her Twitter timeline to explain why she did not attend the unveiling. “My family and I were not informed about my husband’s unveiling. I had zero say or input on his tombstone or inscription. I was not invited. Like everyone on socials, it was my first time seeing Leano in four years,” she wrote. “Like I said, their evil and malice knows no boundaries. But Modimo le Motho see this … and they will action accordingly.”

2) I had zero say or input on his tombstone or inscription
3) I was NOT invited
4) like every1 on socials, it was my first time seeing Leano in 4yrs

After HHP’s suicide in 2018, the rapper’s father attempted to exclude her from all funeral arrangements because they did not recognise her as his customary wife.

After having to go through court, the Gauteng South High Court later recognised her as HHP’s lawful customary wife after the lobola negotiations and wedding ceremony that took place in February 2016.
At HHP’s funeral service many noticed Lerato was excluded from the tributes, seated apart from the Tsambo family, and how the late rapper’s sister acknowledged everyone except her.
HHP’s sister claims that it was an itimate gathering
“She was not the only one who was not invited so we owe quite a few people an apology for leaving them out , we just thought she was going to invite herself; we even reserved a seat for her, It was a private gathering mostly reserved for close family”, she said.
