He also stated in one of his posts that he would carry Zahara’s soul with him wherever he went.
“What haven’t we shared, MaZet? 2024 is going to be the first without you. I will carry your spirit everywhere with me,“ said Nongxa.
Many of her friends also remembered her for her affection, as she was considered to be a loving individual.
