"I still can't believe that we are where we are today — and it's all thanks to each and every one of you. Your love and support have carried me when days were not so bright and when I felt like it was too much, you guys have stuck with me through it all and I am humbled," Thabo, 26, wrote on his social media timeline.
"To Idols SA and Mzansi Magic, thank you so much for the platform and allowing me to be part of this final chapter and although this is the end of one book, I believe it is the start of something greater.
"To everyone who's been part of this journey with me in production, I appreciate you all so much. Thank you for being the amazing souls you are. May God bless each one of you. Team Thabo and my amazing family, I appreciate the love you've shown me, the prayers, calls and unmatched support — thank you so much. To my hometown, Witbank, guys, IBUYILE, we have made history and I love you all."
