Gay Right Activist:Koyo Bala…………….Dies Of Cancer Of The Anus
After a three-year battle with cancer of the anus‚ South African
musician Koyo Bala gave up on Tuesday at about 9 AM at Groote Schuur
Hospital in Cape Town, surrounded by his three sisters. The 36-year-old
singer was part of gay pop trio 3Sum, made up of Bala‚ Amstel Maboa and
the late Jeff Moyo, who died in 2010‚ reportedly from HIV/Aids-related
complications. They were known in the entertainment industry as
activists for gay rights. IN 2011‚ Bala disclosed publicly that he was
HIV-positive, a decision he told the Sunday Times in 2014 had cost him
work. IN 2014 he was diagnosed with anal cancer and last year he decided
to move back home, where he started chemotherapy – a journey he widely
shared with his social media followers in images‚ videos and messages.
His last tweet about his illness was on February and it reads:
“I pray 2 God everyday 2 help me pass this cancer #itshard#pains#wontgiveup#canwinthisbattle#cantsleepofpains”. RIP to him.
