Members of the SA National Defence Force (SANDF) are coming in numbers at the Mabuza farm in Barberton as they are expected to rehearse for their parade.

Mabuza's funeral service will take place at Hoerskool Bergvlam Sports Field in Mbombela on Saturday and he is expected to be laid to rest at his farm.

A guard of honor is also expected to be held in respect of Manuza, this afternoon.

He passed away in hospital in Johannesburg a week ago.
