According to The Citizen, Lasizwe explained why he decided to gift each of his guests at the party a pair of Bathu shoes.
“I decided that I want to gift everyone that comes to my birthday… so when I was thinking about the gift that I want to give you guys I remembered the slogan of the brand that I work with… Bathu, walk your journey,” he said.
“I picked the last number because I feel like my guests are very esteemed, and I respect you because you also respect me… It’s a gift from me to you to say thank you for your time. One quality that I always hold dear is time.”
