Msomi's brother, Bonga says Mvumo was his mentor. He says he doesn't know who would want to harm their family.
"My bother was a very good man who liked to involve himself in traditional things. I have never remembered him once telling us about having enemies or so, but he was a very good man. We have all heartbroken and traumatised," he said.
He says he has no idea why they were attacked.
"I don't know what I can say. But we are hoping that the Minister of Police and other security sectors will work fast to arrest the killers," he said.
Police say shots were fired through the window and door and that the motive for the killing still unknown.
No arrests have been made yet.
