Speaking to TshisaLIVE‚ Mampho said Akhumzi's friends decided to celebrate Ma Zoe so that she knew she was not alone and had many children looking after her.
"We are all her children now and she is our mother. We wanted to honour her‚ to thank her for giving us Akhumzi‚ and to let her know that she will never be alone."
Mampho said that Ma Zoe was surprised at all her guests arriving but was happy to have them.
"She was full of smiles and she looked like she enjoyed us being there. It was very special."
