‘Love and Live’
On Sunday afternoon, Nova took to her TikTok account to explain what happened on Saturday night.
“As some of you know, I had a car accident yesterday. So what happened was, we went to Pretoria for a gig, then from Pretoria to Sun City. We celebrated 50 SomiziTh birthday From there I’m going to another gig in the Vaal. As I left my friends in Sun City, I thought in vain that this might be the last time I saw them. At no point did I think about it, and then this accident happened on the road.
“It made me think that life is too short. Life is short, so don’t take the person you love for granted. Whatever second or minute you spend with them, make sure they know exactly how you feel. Be vocal about your feelings because you never know what will happen a second from now.
“I’m not trying to evangelize, but I’m real, I’m realistic and mainly what happened. It was a serious accident, and by God’s grace once again me and my bodyguard were not seriously injured. But people, just love and live. Love and life knows, because once again you never know what’s going to happen. So I thought I’d share this with you, I hope it’s safe outside. Be safe, love and live,” said Nova in a long TikTok video.
