2. What is your favourite colour and food?

I like light pink and love to eat spinach mixed with cheese and pap.

3. What did you want to become when you were a child?

A Nurse , I enjoyed helping my late grandfather when I was young, because he was very old hopeless and suffered from stroke so we had to take care of him 24/7, feeding him, turning him on the bed and take him outside so he can get some fresh air. In addition my aunt has been a nurse, so she really inspired me. I always wanted to work like her when I grow up because she was always looking perfect in her white uniform.

An old blue big teddy bear which my aunt bought from DAPP

I am a very hardworking and business minded person. I was inspired by my uncles; namely Tate Kalindi, LG and Champ Styles. I am following in their footsteps.

Furthermore I love reading and hanging around the elders, listening to their tales especially at work. You can find me with the elders cracking out jokes with them.
