Ndlovu was a young boy from Veeplaas township in Port Elizabeth who had a medical condition that made his head shake.
Ndlovu came into the spotlight a couple of years ago with a video of him reciting his clan names and he was an instant hit.
As confirmed earlier today by his Aunt and later Zakes Bantwini, the country is shook on learning of the passing of the child star from Port Elizabeth due to unconfirmed circumstances.
