Earlier this month, she shared few pics at other schools also making sure that more children are benefiting from her back to school campaign.

“Smiles and celebrations were the order of the day.

Thandeka is currently starring on Mzansi Magics’ hit drama series eHostela alongside popular actors such as Thobani Nzuza, Zola Nombona, Noxolo Mathula just to mention a few. She plays the role of Nelly on the show.

Bonang Matheba has been condemned for her claims about her reality show, Being Bonang.

Some days ago, the media personality revealed one of the reasons she discontinued the show. According to her, some persons involved with the show have refused to pay her.

“I’m over it… and they owe me money so, nah!! Maybe….B*dazzled reloaded?” she said.

Meanwhile in 2019, Queen B seem excited ending the show as she claims it was her worst working experiences.

“Making Being Bonang Season 3 was one of the worst working experiences of my life!! Glad it’s ending…remind me to tell y’all why one day!”

After her recent confession about the money saga, the producers of the show refuted her claims, saying her management was paid fully, and that the poor performance of the show got it cancelled.

Speaking with The Citizen, Barleader TV Production head Legend Manqele said:

“The tweet doesn’t refer to my company or anyone specific. All money was paid to her management. For the record, Being Bonang was canceled because it wasn’t performing. It was the channel that decided not to continue with the reality show.”

DJ Zinhle’s appearance in Nelli Tembe’s tribute disturbs South Africans

AKA’s fiancée, Anele Nelli Tembe was laid to rest today, Friday, 16th of April 2021, but the unexpected occurred and South Africans are not taking it lightly.The funeral service held at Durban International Conference Centre; friends and families were there to respect the young lady.

Aside the sermon, tributes from persons very close to the 22-year-old were read out and displayed.

AKA paid his tribute by projecting a compiled short video of Nelli; however, it’s shocking and disturbing for many that the rapper’s ex-lover and babymama, DJ Zinhle surfaced in one of the slides.

Mama Kairo topped social media trend list as many were curious about the event.

A Twitter user claimed that it wasn’t intentional, as the person who helped AKA compile the photos mistakenly added the DJ’s photo straight from google, without checking it.

“The person who compiled that Anele Tembe slide he collected her pictures from google and picked the one ka DJ Zinhle by mistake Go and Google Anele Tembe pictures you will see that pic ka Zinhle pops up Surely the person is not familiar with Zinhle,” said tweep.

Check out tweeps reactions below:

Ayanda Ncwane has stepped on the toes of so many following her recent comments.

The star was called out after her comments which some felt it was tribalistic and offensive.

The Real Housewives of Durban cast member was talking a fellow cast member Nonkanyiso Conco about another ‘housewife’ named Kgomotso.

Speaking in isiZulu, Ncwane said that Kgomotso was not a black person and was a Tswana instead.

Although this is a fairly normal way for Zulu-speaking people to refer to tribes outside their own, many felt that there was tribalism involved and called her out.
