Actor Wiseman Mncube, Mpho Wabadimo, The Soil, Mbuso Khoza, singer Phila Dlozi and Gogo Dineo Ndlanzi were amongst the people who attended the Castle Milk Stout Ancestor's Day Imibizo.
Speaking to Briefly News, actor Wiseman Mncube talked about the importance of ancestors and their role in our lives.
He said:
"Everyone needs to acknowledge the importance of Ancestor's Day, and as Gogo Dineo said, we are our own walking ancestors, and you are paving the way for the person coming after you. It might be your child or your niece and nephew. So, people should embrace their ancestors and spirituality.
"My work heals many people; I started this journey of spirituality and traditional healing in 2017 and have been part of the Castle Milk Stout Ancestor's Day imbizo. Being vocal about my journey as a traditional and spiritual person means empowering many people and showcasing my gift."
HRH Zolani Mkiva, Secretary-General of CONTRALESA, shared with Briefly News:
"Our ancestors are the unshakable foundation upon which we build our present and future. Recognising and honouring their enduring wisdom, guidance, and sacrifices is a profoundly unifying sentiment shared by all Africans.
"As CONTRALESA, we are making a royal call to all our people to invoke their originality, which in essence is their Africanness. It is in our best interest to go back to our spiritual roots so that we can find progression in our developmental agenda."
Mpho Wabadimo also posted stunning pictures of her with other traditional leaders on her Instagram page during the celebration of Ancestor's Day and captioned it:
"In the Spirit of Africa Month , Yesterday we celebrated #ancestorsday & poured one for the ancestors. The Congress of Traditional Leaders of South Africa collaborated with communities, and cultural custodians to have 8 May celebrated as Ancestor’s Day & @castlemilkstout_sa has been in the forefront of this powerful initiative and movement. This isn’t another public holiday but it is an important day , it is a day of Reflection and Honouring those who came before us."
Mpho Wabadimo also told Briefly News:
"The significance of Ancestor's Day, especially in today's society, where African spirituality has become such a norm, is that we still get some confusion from people. Remember, spirituality means no limitation of religion or belief. Hence, ancestor's day, when it comes to African spirituality, is a foundation one follows. Therefore, Ancestor's Day is not just about celebrations. Still, it is about understanding and reflecting on the knowledge that comes from understanding the depth of what you are following and who you are as an African."
