The exclusive will air eNCA on July 18 at 6.30pm.
In the teaser video, Khumalo-Gumede reveals that she was the one who sat beside Meyiwa putting pressure on his wound while on the way to the hospital.
Questioning the State’s failed attempted to find answers regarding the trial, Khumalo said, “How do you fish in the same pond for eight years and still get no answers but continue to fish”, before breaking down and asking for tissues.
She continued, “We are not guilty until proven guilty.”
Meyiwa’s fans are awaiting the interview and want Masikane to ask hard-hitting questions. Some have even questioned why she is giving an interview with the trial full steam ahead.
One Twitter user: @kaylin_paper said: “Epic. @Sli_Masikane bringing us that Debora Patta energy. 💥🔥.”

Last week, the trial took a dramatic turn after advocate Malesela Teffo withdrew from the case and walked out of the courtroom.
He stated that his decision was due to alleged harassment by the judge, the police and the National Prosecuting Authority.
“I can no longer continue in this court based on the harassment I am receiving, both from the State and from the court,” Teffo said.
Since then the Presidency said it had noted and strongly refutes the “false claims” made by advocate Malesela Teffo that President Cyril Ramaphosa is behind the lawyer’s alleged intimidation and decision to withdraw from the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial.
“The Presidency finds these unsubstantiated and baseless claims mischievous and harmful to the standing of the office of the president. The Presidency does not participate in criminal investigations or trials and is not involved in any perceived or actual harassment of advocate Teffo,” said Ramaphosa’s spokesperson Vincent Magwenya.
