It's a good day for some good news.
Just a few months ago rapper Cassper Nyovest posted a video on all his social media platforms that touched the hearts of his many followers.

In the video, he made an emotional plea for anyone watching to help him support Nompilo Dlamini.
Nompilo is a young girl from Eswatini who is suffering from a debilitating illness called cystic fibrosis. In order to stand any chance of surviving this disease, she would need lifesaving surgery and a transplant.

To cover the costs of the procedure and her previous medical debt, Nompilo needs R2-million which seemed like a completely unattainable goal.
That's until her story came to Cassper's attention and he decided to contribute by donating R150,000 to her medical fund.
