"It is all about South Africans coming together as one, being united and singing one song. We are a beautiful country and all we must do is love one another. There must never be whites, blacks, Indians, coloured. We are one and we are South Africans.""The videos I shared were to unite us as one and supporting our own.

I pray to God to keep the spirit going and forever be one," Kabelo said.Netizens amused by Kabelo's support
