Amazwi okubonga

Ngithanda ukubonga amadodana ami uNkosinathi kan- ye noSiphamandla Sikhakhane, ngokuthi bangibekezelele bangigqugquzele nalapho ngizwa ngiphelelwa yithemba. Ngiphinde ngibonge umndeni ofudumele wakwaBotsotso ow- abona inhlansi ilokoza, bafisa ukuthi iphenduke imbuthuma ukuze soothe isizukulwane siKaZulu. Allan Kolski Horwitz no Siphiwe Ka Ngwenya, nginethulela isigqoko banewethu. Ngin- gakhohlwa abashicileli bethu, ngithi nime njalo.

I would like to thank my sons, Nkosinathi and Siphamandla Sikha- khane, for their patience and encouragement even when I had lost hope. I would also like to thank the warm family of Botsotso who saw a spark and wished it could turn into flames so that a whole Zulu generation could warm themselves. To Allan Kolski Horwitz and Siphiwe Ka Ngwenya - I take off my hat to you, my brothers. Not forgetting our publishers, hold on.
