Big Zulu gets his kids Carvelas for Christmas

In Mzanzi, many families have made a tradition of giving their kids a chance to wear new clothes as a way to celebrate Christmas. After all, the festive day is all about families and friends getting together to celebrate and make new memories.

While many parents are going up and down trying to find the perfect fits for their kids, others have already found their kids the items that will make them happy and look beautiful.

South African rapper and songwriter Siyabonga Nene, professionally known as Big Zulu, is one of the artists who prioritises his family as much as he is dedicated to his music career. He has proven to the internet on many occasions that he frequently takes time to make his family feel loved and appreciated.

The award-winning singer took to Instagram to post his two daughters who got their Christmas shoes – a pair of Carvelas – from the retail store Spitz .

He captioned his post:

“Ay sebetholile icathulo namakhekhe Christmas askhath sokuya ekhaya uShaka Sihle noMinenhle sebehambile kusele le 2 Ngiyabonga @spitzshoes
@lovemycarvelas (They have gotten their Christmas cake and shoes, it’s time to go home because Sihle and Minenhle have already left).”
