Netizens were amazed by the celebrity couple, noting that they often keep a low profile. Although it was not revealed what they were doing in the North West, according to The South African, the Motsepe family run the Bakgatla ba Mmakau tribal authority.

This is what people had to say:

@DocPhuti asked:

"Does he drive himself? And then you have our ministers with less money who want VIP to drive them everywhere they go."

@CorreiaLynne claimed:

"Pity he can't fund a school."

Defending him, @hobo_group said:

"That is government’s job …he pays billions in taxes. That’s used for schools you talking about."

@Kwah_2cnie shared:

"The most humble Billionaire ever."

@bkbanks_

Fun facts about Patrice Motsepe

Patrice's name is a tribute to Patrice Lumumba, the first elected Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Lumumba was a pivotal figure in the country's fight for independence from Belgium and was tragically executed in 1961 after a coup that overthrew his government.

In 2003, Motsepe acquired a 51% stake in the Mamelodi Sundowns football club. Less than a year later, he purchased the remaining 49%, becoming the club's sole owner.

According to Forbes magazine, Motsepe is currently the 847th richest person in the world, with a net worth of $2.2 billion. He is one of seven South Africans and the only black individual on the list. His highest ranking was in 2008 when he reached number 503.

The billionaire was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Stellenbosch. He was one of just 14 distinguished individuals to receive this honour, alongside figures like Gift of the Givers' founder Dr Imtiaz Sooliman and Professor Brian O’Connell.
