Actress Nomzamo Mbatha was devastated to find herself writing a sympathy note rather than a congrats to one of the Nomzamo Lighthouse Foundation beneficiaries.
Mbatha commented, “I am sorry that this is not a graduation post.” that, Chibimba, I am not able to see your summit. However, I have no doubt that you are free from the suffering, anxiety, and weight of this life.
One of the recipients of Mbatha’s foundation was Chibimba Muzyamba, a Tshwane University of Technology student studying civil engineering; nevertheless, the scholar and content producer perished away.
The actress founded the Nomzamo Lighthouse Foundation in 2015, and the organization’s efforts are motivated by the suffering of South Africa’s most disenfranchised and vulnerable people.
The three main pillars of the foundation are food security, youth empowerment, and education.
Too soon gone
The reason behind Muzyamba’s passing is yet unknown, although he last tweeted on June 7th, saying, “There was no love I left unturned.”
A few days prior to that, he had posted in mysterious and accepting tones in several threads.
Mbatha claimed in her article that Muzyamba had given in to his greatest anguish and sorrow.
It is especially harsh because he never showed signs of weakness or resignation. Mbatha remarked, “He inspired everyone around him and had such incredible self-belief and fight in him.
However, I have no doubt that you are free from the suffering, anxiety, and weight of this life. The suffering and unanswered questions you left behind still affect those who are left behind. In the physical world, you were significantly more precious and loved, and a great, big number of people would have stayed by your side to help you fight for your life.
