About Imiphanga
So no farewell goes unheard.
South Africa's dedicated funeral notice broadcast show.
The Show
Imiphanga is OurNews' funeral notice broadcast show — created to help families professionally share news of a passing and the funeral arrangements with the wider community.
The name draws from the long-standing South African tradition of publicly communicating death and funeral notices. Today, Imiphanga carries that tradition into digital media through professionally presented isiXhosa and English broadcasts on YouTube and Facebook.
Each episode features funeral notices read by a professional presenter — IsiXhosa and English editions, with IsiZulu, SeSotho and more in development. Launching soon on YouTube & Facebook.
