The UCT choir’s rendition of the traditional Zulu hymn, Thuma Mina pays tribute to all frontline workers at the coalface of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This video is dedicated to all those who raised their hands to say “Thuma Mina” (Send me), and courageously took up position in the frontlines to fight against the COVID-19 virus; UCT Community members battling the COVID-19 virus and those who lost their lives or family members to COVID-19.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
