"I had an opportunity to witness your last performance and it was so different, so emotional and so heavy. I cried my heart out - you told me you were not feeling too well and we rushed to the hotel.
"We cancelled the plans for the rest of the evening because you wanted to take a nap. I will always love you @ZaharaSA"
Speaking exclusively to Briefly News, Asandiswa Mhlauli, aka Afiba who shared the video and was present at the event said the performance was emotional. He revealed that the show was in Langa township in Cape Town where people of all ages and races came out to witness the singer do what she did best.
"The video I shared was a Celebration of Langa Township – it was a 100th-year celebration organised by the City of Cape Town. The Langa township closed the whole of Washington Street which is the longest and the biggest street in Langa and it was packed with people that came to see Zahara.
"It was so emotional for us and overwhelming to really witness this kind of love in real life, it was so pure and so genuine and it was a reassurance to us that no matter how much people can try to discredit you or take away from you, they will never take the God-given talent and the gift of healing that comes with it, hence we cried but it was tears of joy. Myself and Aviwe Mdani were shouting “I love you” “Uxolo” and that meant “don’t cry it’s okay, take and receive the love.”
