| Kayakazi Stamper |
|
Kayakazi is known as Cynthia at work. Why? Years back she was working for a french lady called Francine who could not pronounce her African name. Kaya did not skip a beat. She simply glanced at an open magazine and picked the first easily pronounced name as her own. It has stuck because everyone now knows Kaya as Cynthia.
Kaya was born in Peddi, Eastern Cape the 27th of September 1966. Kaya has been part of the Monkeyland + Birds of Eden team since the 1st of March 2007.
