Their journey on AGT came to an end in the early hours of this morning after American Kodi Lee, who is blind and autistic, was crowned the season 14 winner.

Their performance of Toto’s hit, ‘Africa’ left the crowd in awe but it was not enough to secure a place in the top five. However, they did get the chance to perform with US rapper, Macklemore and Norwegian DJ, Kygo, alongside the other youth choir in the competition, Detroit Youth Choir.

The choir say they are not discouraged that they did not win, but rather, they are excited for what the future holds. “We are so excited for what lies ahead and we look forward to continuing sharing love, unity and above all hope,” they said, taking to social media.

One thing is for sure, the Ndlovu Youth Choir will always be winners in the hearts of South Africans and they have not only placed Limpopo on the map but they have made the province proud.
