My Name is
Khumbo

Khumbo
Khumbo's mother died in 2007 when he was two years old, and his father’s whereabouts remain unknown. Khumbo was being cared for by his impoverished grandfather who could not care for his needs. He made his initial transition into Rafiki very well. His quiet, timid demeanor soon changed into a joyful and loving personality.
