Siv Ngema is currently trending on Twitter after he called himself an ally for the LGBTQI community.
The star has stepped on the toes of many after he introduced the new name he gave himself sometime ago, “Sivanna” to the world.
However, LGBTQI community were really pissed with his tweet as they called him out for doing nothing to the numerous cases of queer deaths that have been going around on social media.
They went on to share their anger as they felt Siv is more favored that the real queer people who all they get is negativity and hatred.
A tweep said: “When Siv Ngesi wears a dress, he gets applauded for his ‘bravery’ and gets paid for it. And then he goes back to his normal life. We get killed for doing the exact thing. We will hold him accountable every chance we get, you can bet your homophobia on it.
I get where you coming from but we’ve seen this film before and I really didn’t like the ending. When the dust settles the ally’s like Siv will be the first one doing all the online performance and twirling for sponsors meanwhile queer ppl are being used as a weapon to only fight https://t.co/183arSJ6Gz
