October whispers a solemn truth, a month devoted to the tender awareness of pregnancy and infant loss.

 

 

 

 

 

I hold my babies in the sanctuary of my heart, counting each precious moment as a treasure, loving them with a devotion that transcends time. The sorrow of losing a child—or three innocent souls—creates a wound that cuts deeper than any other.

Oh, Jesus, how I wished to gather my little ones upon my knee, to share the stories of Your boundless love. In my absence, I ask that You hold them close, and speak of me in the softest tones.

In a mere six months, I lost my three beautiful angels, and from this profound sorrow, I birthed a foundation in their honor. I strive to believe in my healing, though it unfolds like flowers in the spring—layer by delicate layer. Though shadows may linger, I choose to seek the light that dances beyond. Grief is a testament to love.

Today, I reach out to women who share this heart-wrenching path, reminding them that their voices resonate, that they are seen in their pain, and that their grief is a sacred journey. You are not alone; you are held in this deep feeling of love and loss.

When a baby is born, it’s a mother’s instinct to protect her baby. When a baby dies, it’s a mother’s instinct to protect their memory.

Planted on earth to bloom in Heaven.

Khanyi Mbau Shows Her New Face Again as She Recovers from Extensive Surgery in Turkey

Khanyi Mbau, a renowned South African media personality and actress, recently took to social media to share a new selfie update as she recovers from extensive surgery in Turkey. Known for her bold and glamorous lifestyle, Mbau hoped to showcase her resilience and transformation. However, the response has been mixed, with many netizens critiquing her new look and questioning the authenticity of her transformation.

 

 

 

 
Mbau has been open about her cosmetic procedures, often using her platform to document her journey. This latest update was meant to display her progress as she heals from a significant surgical procedure. However, instead of receiving praise for her bravery, she faced a wave of criticism. Social media users have been vocal about their disapproval, with some suggesting that her transformation does not live up to expectations.

One user commented, “The transformation is not transformationing,” reflecting a common sentiment among critics who feel that the changes Mbau is promoting are either too subtle or not as effective as she suggests. This view was echoed by others who felt that her post did not align with the dramatic results typically associated with such procedures. The backlash has been swift, with many accusing Mbau of rushing her recovery process or misrepresenting the extent of her healing.

Critics have pointed out that cosmetic surgery, especially procedures as extensive as Mbau’s, requires a significant recovery period, often involving substantial downtime and careful post-operative care. Some have argued that it is too soon for Mbau to reveal her new appearance, suggesting that the early showcase might give a misleading impression of the healing process.

However, not all reactions have been negative. A significant number of Khanyi Mbau’s followers have rallied around her, praising her for her confidence and transparency. Supporters argue that Mbau’s decision to share her journey is a personal choice and that healing from surgery is a gradual and individual process. They applaud her for her willingness to open up about her experiences, noting that she is under no obligation to meet the public’s expectations of perfection.

Fans have also defended Mbau against the criticism, emphasizing that her journey is her own and that the courage it takes to share vulnerable moments with the world should not be overshadowed by negativity. They argue that everyone’s recovery is different and that the public should be more understanding of the physical and emotional challenges associated with such procedures.

As Khanyi Mbau continues her recovery, it remains uncertain how she will respond to the criticism surrounding her recent updates. She has yet to make any direct comments addressing the backlash, but her ongoing engagement on social media suggests that she is determined to maintain a connection with her followers, regardless of the mixed feedback.

The debate surrounding Mbau’s latest selfie underscores the scrutiny celebrities often face when sharing personal milestones with the public. It also highlights the broader challenges of navigating public perception in the age of social media, where every post is subject to instant judgment. For Mbau, this moment is not just about recovery from surgery; it is also a testament to her resilience in the face of public opinion.

Renowned polygamist and reality TV star, Musa Mseleku, is reportedly preparing to add a fifth wife to his growing family. The woman in question is none other than actress Ntokozo ‘Goldivah’ Mzulwini, a talented performer known for her roles in popular South African TV dramas. According to *ZiMoja*, Mseleku, famous for his reality show *uThando Nes’thembu*, has already introduced Ntokozo to his family, taking the first steps toward making her his next wife.

Ntokozo Mzulwini, hailing from Durban, is more than just an actress. She is also a singer and dancer who has made appearances on South Africa’s hit TV shows such as *Imbewu: The Seed*, *Uzalo*, and *Umkhokha: The Curse*. Having studied drama and theater at the Durban University of Technology (DUT), Ntokozo is well-versed in the arts. Despite her young age, sources close to her reveal that she is already a mother, and her decision to enter a polygamous relationship has taken many by surprise.

 

 
“It’s shocking because she is quite young. I would have never expected her to agree to polygamy,” a source shared with *ZiMoja*. Ntokozo has maintained a low profile regarding her relationship with Mseleku, often avoiding direct questions. However, when asked about the rumors, she reportedly blushed and giggled, hinting that there may be some truth to the speculation.

Mseleku, who is no stranger to polygamy, has introduced Ntokozo to his wives and children at their family home in Mzumbe. This family gathering is reportedly part of the vetting process, where the existing wives assess whether Ntokozo would be a suitable addition to the household. “He has introduced Ntokozo to them, and the wives have already met her. But he is still trying to check if she will fit into the home. It’s not official yet, but they have started shooting with her on the reality show,” a source told *ZiMoja*.

Though Mseleku is described as “smitten” with Ntokozo and excited about the prospect of marrying her, the move has not been without its challenges. His four existing wives—MaCele, MaYeni, MaKhumalo, and Mangwabe—have previously expressed their resistance to the idea of him taking on a fifth wife. This tension has been highlighted in earlier seasons of *uThando Nes’thembu*, where the wives made it clear they were not open to expanding the family further.

Despite this opposition, Mseleku has remained steadfast in his desire to grow his family. The businessman has publicly stated his goal of fathering 20 children, and adding another wife may help him reach that target. Initially, he had hoped to marry a lawyer, doctor, or academic as his fifth wife. However, he now seems content with someone who is independent and financially stable, qualities he sees in Ntokozo.

As rumors swirl, fans of *uThando Nes’thembu* eagerly await the next season of the show, where they will likely see how Ntokozo is integrated into the already complex family dynamic. For now, Mseleku remains confident in his decision, believing that Ntokozo will be a strong addition to his household. However, only time will tell whether this union will come to fruition and how it will impact the relationships within his family.

The prospect of Mseleku’s fifth marriage is expected to dominate conversations and media in the coming weeks, with many curious about how this latest development will unfold. Will Ntokozo embrace polygamy and become the next wife, or will the family dynamics prove too challenging? Fans will have to stay tuned to see how the story unfolds.

Ngoako Ramatlhodi revealed at Tito Mboweni’s funeral that the former finance minister died a very unhappy comrade.

Former cabinet minister Ngoako Ramatlhodi in his tribute to Tito Mboweni revealed that he died an unhappy man.

NGOAKO RAMATLHODI: ‘I CHOOSE TO NOT QUOTE THE DEAD’

Ngoako Ramatlhodi said Tito Mboweni did not support the ANC’s decision to form the government of national unity (GNU).

Sowetan reports that Ramatlhodi spent a lot of time with Mboweni discussing the current state of the ANC.

 

“He died a very unhappy comrade. We used to spend a lot of time discussing issues facing the movement and our country. In particular the fate of the national democratic revolution”.

Ramatlhodi adds that Mboweni in June sent him a quotation from Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities.

This was as part of their debate around the state of the ANC and the country. The quote reads: “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom”.

“It was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.”

“We had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way, in short.”

“The period was so far like the present period that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.”

The former cabinet minister said this message was sent to him as part of the difficult conversations they were having in recent times.

“I choose not to quote the dead when they have no right of reply,” concludes Ramatlhodi.

Tito Mboweni’s ‘Simple’ Tombstone: Reflecting a Life of Humility

Social media users were surprised by the understated elegance of the tombstone of former Minister of Finance, Tito Mboweni, which was unveiled during his funeral in Limpopo. The simplicity of the memorial stone seemed to mirror the way Mboweni lived his life—humble, unpretentious, and focused on service rather than glamour. The former finance minister and South Africa’s first black Reserve Bank Governor was laid to rest on Saturday, 19 October, at a state funeral held in his hometown of Tzaneen

 

 

 
A Life of Public Service
Tito Mboweni was a prominent figure in South African politics and economics. Born in 1959, Mboweni had a distinguished career that spanned several decades. He served as the Minister of Labour in Nelson Mandela’s cabinet from 1994 to 1998, before becoming the first black governor of the South African Reserve Bank in 1999, a position he held until 2009. His tenure at the Reserve Bank was marked by steady leadership during turbulent times, and he played a pivotal role in shaping South Africa’s monetary policy post-apartheid.

In 2018, Mboweni returned to government as the Minister of Finance, a role he held until 2021. Known for his frugal approach to public spending, he consistently advocated for fiscal discipline, even when his views were unpopular. Mboweni’s legacy is one of cautious optimism for South Africa’s economy, with his policies often reflecting his no-nonsense, pragmatic approach to governanc### A Simple Yet Touching Farewell
During the state funeral, Mboweni’s three sons, Sello, Pule, and Tumelo, gave heartfelt tributes to their father. They remembered him not just as a public figure, but as a loving and dedicated father. The intimate moments shared during the service highlighted the personal side of the man many knew only through his work in politics and finance.

One of the most talked-about aspects of the funeral was Mboweni’s tombstone, which was revealed at the Bodweni Cemetery in Limpopo. Unlike the extravagant and elaborate memorials often seen for public figures, Mboweni’s tombstone was striking in its simplicity. The black stone featured basic details about his birth, death, and burial dates, free of any embellishments or extravagant designs. The modest design seemed to perfectly encapsulate the man who, despite his high-profile career, was known for his down-to-earth nature.

### A Humble Reflection of His Life
The decision to keep the tombstone understated resonated with many South Africans. Several social media users noted how fitting it was that Mboweni’s final resting place reflected the simplicity and humility with which he lived his life. One commenter remarked, “It’s a beautiful reminder that life is not about material things, but about how you make a difference in the world.”

In an era where many public figures choose to leave behind grand monuments as a legacy, Mboweni’s simple tombstone serves as a powerful statement. It reflects a man who, despite his great accomplishments, remained grounded and focused on his role as a servant of the peopleTito Mboweni’s passing marks the end of an era for South Africa’s economic and political landscape. However, his legacy will continue to influence future generations. His leadership, integrity, and commitment to the country will not be forgotten, and his modest tombstone stands as a lasting symbol of the man he was—humble, dedicated, and always focused on the greater good.

As South Africans reflect on Mboweni’s life, it is clear that his contributions to the nation went far beyond politics. He was a man who lived by his principles, and his simple tombstone is a poignant reminder of the values he held dear.
