Media mogul and Sompire clothing brand CEO and owner Somizi Mhlongo took to his social media to thank his late parents for their support and for having allowed him to pursue his dreams without forcing him to stay at school for a plan B.
The businessman and Living the Dream with Somizi reality TV star has been busy and booked making us wonder if he has more than the 24 hours that we all have in a day.
Among the many gigs that SomGaga (as affectionately called by his fans) does is, MCing and hosting events, the Ask A Man segment with Naked DJ on Metro FM’s Break Away with Khutso Theledi, judging on Idols SA, playing detective on Masked Singer South Africa and many more.
Thanking his parents, the father of one shared:
“Ma and Pa this is me. Your son. Thank u for always allowing me to be me always. When I said I wanna be an artist u never said finish your matric as plan B. Coz u have always believed in my Plan A and so did I. And plan A has had its ups and downs. At some point I wish I had plan B. But I’m glad I hung on. Plan A is now paying off. I knew that one day I’d be the CEO of something. I thought that wud have happened 20 years ago. But I’m glad it’s only happening now coz I’m ready. Here’s to my legacy. It’s gonna be another rough tough journey but u bet IM READY. Luckily, I don’t walk alone. I have YOU around me all the time. Ps: thanks to @omnisartifex for these portraits. I love them. You’re such a talent.”
