Soccer Legend Doctor Khumalo gave Oscar Mbo one his iconic Bafana Bafana jerseys.

The old school jersey has significance for South Africans, as it is the one Bafana Bafana wore when they qualified for the World Cup, which paved the way for its first participation on the world stage.

Mbo shared a clip of himself receiving the vintage jersey from Doctor Khumalo, who personally delivered it and signed it for him. The DJ made it known that it was an honour to receive from the man himself, “16V” whom he watched during his childhood.

Mbo posted: “I watched the legendary 16V in my childhood at his prime, and it’s such an honour to have him deliver his iconic shirt for me. I’m framing this one for my dad. Thank you, Mdokishi, my OG! @dk15_official.”

Thanks to Mbo’s huge social media following, the video has gained thousands of comments. Football fans were quick to give Khumalo’s gesture the nod.

Speaking to TshisaLIVE, Mbo said: “This is the best gift and also as I am a Kaizer Chiefs fan, I'm like a little kid again, I remember watching Doctor Khumalo on TV with my family — I feel honoured.”

Mbo joins a host of South African celebrities who have received the iconic national team jersey from the AmaKhosi legend. Singer Theo Mafikizolo and DJ Oskido are some A-listers who also recently received a jersey from Khumalo.
