Xhosa mom rejects Mother’s Day gift

A Xhosa lady, Masindi, surprised her mom with a pricey Mother’s Day gift but her parent was not impressed. Masindi bought R1.5K Crocs for her first lady and got them delivered to her in the Eastern Cape.

Her mom was not amused by the gift and wanted the money instead. One family member explained to her the hype around the shoes but she dismissed it immediately.

Her reaction made many South Africans laugh as they either experienced the same reaction from their parents or they too would have reacted the same. The Xhosa mom had plans to shop, but was disappointed by her gift:

“That’s nonsense. Why didn’t she give me money so that I could buy more things?”

Masindi was not offended as she knew her mother’s personality. She posted the video on TikTok with the caption:

“POV: I bought my mom Crocs and this is how my favourite girl feels.”
