This week, South Africa’s beloved DJ and “Skeem Saam” actor, Clement Maosa, hit us right in the feels with a heartfelt birthday tribute to his son, Bokang, who just turned five. 🎉 From the photos shared on Instagram, it’s clear this wasn’t just another birthday party; it was a dream come true for young Bokang, who is obsessed with Manchester City!
Clement took a moment to reflect on this special milestone, posting a heartfelt message that tugged at our heartstrings. “Today, 5 years ago, a star was born,” he wrote, introducing his son as Bokang Mokgethwa—which beautifully translates to “Praise The Chosen One.” It’s like Clement’s Instagram was transformed into a love letter, where he celebrated not only Bokang’s birthday but also the impact he has on their lives. “He is one of the most gentle, smartest, handsome human beings I’ve ever met, besides me,” he joked, showcasing his affection and cheeky sense of humor.
What’s even more touching is how Clement described Bokang’s personality. “He’s my Day 1, a young version of me but a bit shy,” he said, sharing how the little guy approached his birthday gifts with a laid-back attitude: “I don’t know, whatever you can get, dad.” If that’s not the sweetest thing ever, I don’t know what is! It’s evident that he’s raising a grounded kid, despite the potential for some serious birthday spoiling.
Yet, beneath the cheerful party vibes, Clement shared a more somber reflection, recalling a tough time just two years ago when Bokang was in the ICU. His vulnerability was striking as he revealed, “I couldn’t go to work for a month because my boy was in ICU, and I thought I was losing him.” It’s a raw reminder of how fragile life can be, but thankfully, Bokang bounced back stronger. “Tomorrow, he is turning five, and we give thanks to the Almighty because he bounced back strong!” Those words hit hard and highlight the incredible bond between father and son.
Now, let’s talk about that Manchester City theme! 🎈 Clement and Bokang’s mom went all out for their little football fanatic, putting together the ultimate Manchester City birthday bash. From the looks of it, the celebration was packed with all sorts of fun, and it’s clear that at just five years old, Bokang already knows how to throw a party that matches his personality!
For those who might not be familiar with Clement Maosa, he’s not just a doting dad; he’s an accomplished entertainer! With his role as Zamokuhle Seakamela on “Skeem Saam,” he’s made quite a name for himself. He’s juggled various gigs, from serving as a candidate attorney to rocking the stage with other South African stars like DJ Bongz. Plus, he’s known for hosting some epic birthday celebrations that bring the best of South African celebrity culture together.
It’s evident that the love between Clement and Bokang is something truly special. Here’s to many more birthdays filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable memories! Happy birthday, Bokang! May your star continue to shine brightly over the years! 🌟
