accreditation

Lebani Sirenje who is a popular celebrity funeral artist got dragged on twitter after 'his not so accurate' painting of Mama Winnie.

Sirenje who has made a name for himself as the artist who pays tribute to late celebrities and famous figures through his art work was met with harsh reactions from social media.

Lebani appeared at Winnie Madikizela-Mandela's Soweto home to pay his respects to the late freedom fighter. 

One of the people who were puzzled by the painting was South African journalist, producer, author and a radio presenter Redi Tlhabi, who asked who was that on the canvas. 

What do you think of the painting?
It's good, no need to get angry
It's horrible, I don't know who that is supposed to be
Don't judge a hardworking man's talent
