Nozi Qamngana-Mayaba pens a sweet message for her son
Taking to her TikTok account on 9 June 2026, Nozi shared posts with lengthy captions honouring her little love.
“Where do I even find the words? Where do I begin? How do I explain what it feels like to watch a prayer become a person? To hold in my arms what I first carried in my heart? To celebrate a little boy whose very existence reminds me that God still performs miracles.”
She also reminisced on the good times, writing, “I remember the conversations we had about you, the prayers we whispered, the hopes we carried, and the faith it took to keep believing. I told God that if He granted us you, I would spend the rest of my life proclaiming His goodness and faithfulness. So how could I hide you?”
