Lekau Sehoana wanted the granny who was dancing wearing the Drip shoes and he wanted to bless her with more sneakers. She was found as he asked for help on Twitter and now she is happy with the gifts. She was dancing to the famous Amapiano song by Felo Le Tee Dipatse that day, as many people were surprised that she was a good dancer.

 

 

 

When you know how to dance, you do know and it does not matter what age you have reached. As long as you are energetic, you can dance as much as you want to. So many people are still dancing very well, even though they are old people, and Amapiano is loved by everyone. From a young person to an old individual.

Lekau Sehoana is having a good time, as he tweeted from the few days he was working from his chosen location. He was in Thembisa, also wearing the Drip shoes. Every time you get to meet him, he is wearing Drip footwear and it is sometimes where he would be wearing a different shoe. It is most likely when he is wearing a formal shoe.

It is amazing of Lekau to have such a beautiful moment, and since the old lady loves dancing, she can now enjoy her lifestyle by dancing at events or occasions with different Drip footwear. She is dancing for the love of it and now she is getting benefits that she was not even looking to get. It becomes clear that when you do something you love, it pays.

She does not have to dance for money to get more recognition; with love alone, she has been recognized by Lekau Sehoana. A man who wishes to assist anyone believes he can assist that person. He has made Gogo very happy with the gifts and she will get more blessings in his life, but it is not known in what way.
