IT'S been a day since the country learned about the death of musician and gay activist Koyo Bala and claws have come out between his friends.

Socialite and make-up artist Iko Mash, has slammed designer and stylist Iphraem Molingoana calling him “pathetic and disgusting”.

“I am so saddened by how former friend is riding on Koyo's death to elevate himself and his own brand and benefit as the voice of reason in his life.

“My brother you kicked him out of your space when he needed you the most,you avoided him and refused to take any of his calls when he needed you the most. Stop embarrassing yourself and grow up,” wrote Mash.

Bala passed away on Monday morning after a three year battle with cancer. And in a report with Sowetan Molingoana told of a tale of his last interaction with the deceased star at the airport in Johannesburg. 

According to the report on returning from the MetroFM Awards where Molingoana claimed Bala "looked frail and was put on a wheelchair to board the plane".

“At the airport he held my hand and said ngiyakuthanda va and I said I love you too,” said Molingoana in the Sowetan report.

But all this has left Mash with a bitter taste in his mouth where he also added that Molingoana,  was “feeding the media pathetic lies and insinuations”.

“You dont know anything about what led to Koyo's death and you are not even making an effort to find out from us koyo's friends what eventually happened.Stop feeding the media your pathethic lies and insinuations,” wrote Mash.
