Seasoned journalist Redi Tlhabi received a ton of backlash from social media users after she took to X (the social media platform formally known as Twitter) with her unsolicited comments regarding South African businessman and self-proclaimed philanthropist Malcolm X who appeared at the Alexandra Magistrate Court on charges of corruption and extortion on Monday, 23 October.Malcolm X (57) appeared at the Alexandra Magistrates’ Court with three co-accused police officers Desmond Campbell Kekana (52), James Mpho Sekhaolela (45), and Raymond Mphuwa Mokaile (38). The quartet were faced with two counts of corruption and extortion.

 

 
According to IOL, the National Prosecuting Authority’s (NPA) spokesperson Phindi Mjonondwane shared that the officers blackmailed a woman for R2 million in exchange for her freedom as she faced an arrest for allegedly having fraudulent stamps on her passport. Malcolm X was reported to have been the alleged middleman in facilitating the payment. The men were reported to allegedly have profited a whopping R580 000 from their victim.Veteran journalist Redi Tlhabi has since shared her two cents about the self-proclaimed philanthropist Malcolm X and questioned his qualifications.

“I ask this sincerely. What business does he own? I was at university with him (RAU) where he repeatedly failed his modules and would instigate protests calling for exams to be boycotted… Whereas he hadn’t [even] qualified to write,” she wrote.

However, she had another thing coming as social media users decided to stop her in her tracks. And, instead, flooded her comment section, bashing her statement and accusing her of being envious.“So only those who passed their modules are supposed to be successful Redi? Check your bosses and see if they have any university qualifications,” @bongwe_ncube asked.

“Someone is charged with fraud but because you hate Redi, you’d rather criticize her than the accused. It’s madness in these Twitter streets,” @MissAwori commented.
