Open Letter to Dj Sbu

Dear Sbusiso “Dj Sbu” Leope. Wait, that’s not an appropriate way to greet you. Here it is, Hoyi Hoyiiii! My name is Teboho Thuswa (23), I’m an actor and a motivated speaker, not a motivational one because trials and tribulations I encountered along my journey have strongly ‘motivated’ me to speak and make huge attempts in changing people’s lives. I was really inspired to pen this letter to you because you exquisitely highlight the importance of the solid nation building through all your efficient leadership efforts of ensuring that there is still hope and the light at the end of the tunnel especially for those who have already thrown the towel.

Open Letter to Lundi Tyamara

Dear Lundi Tyamara, My name is Teboho Thuswa (23), I’m an actor and a motivated speaker, not a motivational one because challenges I encountered along my journey of growth have motivated me to speak and change people’s lives. I write this letter to you with unfathomable pains because we have lost a real combatant in you, a real fighter who never resisted fighting even when times were tough and a true Prince of the South African Gospel music. We have lost a creative soul that has immensely contributed to the society through his music with an angelic voice. I actually feel very depraved that I am penning this letter to you now and you are never going to be able to read it, my conscience would however suffocate me if I didn’t express myself and I therefore believe that the good God who is with you currently will share the message with you. It has truly been our tradition to honour people’s deeds when they are no longer with us and it is a tradition that must thus be demolished.
