To the Chief Operations Officer of Motsepe Foundation Mme Nebo Legoabe.

Kgotso a ebe le lena.

On behalf of my family and my team at SayPro, I would like to send my deepest apology for non-compliance and the disappointments that I have caused to you.

You have all the reasons to be disappointed with me and my organisation, SayPro.

As the son of Zion, I have not rested thinking of how you felt. If my spiritual father and Bishop. can hear your frustration about me. He will not be happy at all. As that is not what we are taught us in Zion.

I humbly write this message to apologize for the mistake that I made as a leader and the organisation as a whole.

We are not like that.

We wish to rectify and come to your knees to correct our wrongdoing.

Facing you at the Motsepe Foundation National Day of Prayer 2024 was not easy at all after you have expressed your concern with us.

I promise that from now on. I will and SayPro will participate in all events, support, and engage with you on all the requirements. We will also provide updates and feedback on our contribution to the indicators raised on the Motsepe Foundation National Day of Prayer 2024.

Please receive my apology once again.

As I live and lead SayPro, we shall never let you down again.

To the Chairperson of SayPro Royal Committee, Mr Clifford Legodi, his Committee, and all SayPro Royal Chiefs

Kgotso a ebe le lena.

I wish to send our deepest appreciation to the Motsepe Foundation for extending an invitation to us to attend the Motsepe Foundation National Day of Prayer 2024.

As you are aware, we also went as Sons and Daughters of Zion under the invitation of the Church as well.

The invitation was well received by us, and together with other SayPro Royal Chiefs, we did attend this amazing gathering.

We were welcomed by Motsepe Foundation Mme Nebo Legoabe, who gave us the hospitality to be comfortable and enjoy ourselves.

Church officials from the Ministry welcomed us and provided the hospitality we never knew we needed.

We spent so much time with the Kings and Chiefs from all over South Africa. To name a few.

King and Queen Mabalane from Mabalastad

King and Princess Kunene from Kunene in KZN

King Tshivhase and his Chiefs from Tshivhase

And more than 200 Chiefs from South Africa.

We learned a lot from them. We exchanged ideas and spoke a lot about our bishop.

As I went there, I expected to meet with the leaders of development and business.

I only met kings, chiefs, princesses, and princes from kingdoms and Chieftiancies around South Africa.

I am not able to share pictures here as this was a spiritual event, and we were all with the kings and chiefs wearing church uniforms, which is against taking images.

I had the pleasure of meeting Church Ministry and leadership, who also taught us a lot about how we should behave and handle ourselves as the SayPro Team.

However, we really enjoyed and learned a lot from the gathering.

We also were in prayers as our bishops were praying for us on the gathering.

SayPro Chief Marketing Officer Mr. Nkiwane will provide his report back on the matters of the day and advise us all on what mandates to take from the Motsepe Foundation National Day of Prayer 2024.

My message shall end here.
