A man identified as Katekani Terrence Makondo has shared the truly heartwarming story of his hardworking mother on his Facebook page. In a post on his page, the man explained that his mother sold fruits to send him and his three siblings to school.

According to the man, she was able to raise a chemical engineer, a mechanical engineer, an IT systems operator, and a lawyer. Makondo shared a photo of his mother holding a baby. She was sitting beside a young woman and her wares of fruits were before her.

To appreciate all her sacrifices, Makondo said that he and his siblings bought her a beautiful house. He also shared the photo of the house on his social media page.
