Tbo Touch has proven that the American twang is exactly that, and that he is still in touch with his African roots.

But for Africans, it is the age use of herb burnt as incense to communicate with our ancestors. The incense is used to bless a space or property that you want protected by your ancestors.After posting the video his followers took to the comments section to thank the businessman for educating people on traditional remedies and practices, and proudly displaying it on his social media.

Local musician and avid gamer Maraza was recently the victim of alleged “unprovoked racist attacks” while playing video games online.

The star took to Twitter to explain that he was on the PlayStation UK Network with a group of British gamers when things allegedly took a turn for the worse.

Posting a video of the other gamers throwing slurs at him, Maraza said the “unprovoked racist attacks” made it hard to keep enjoying his time playing online.

Attempts by TshisaLIVE to contact PlayStation UK for comment on the incident were not successful at the time of publishing this story.

The star also posted several screenshots of conversations he had offline with two of the gamers who apologised for the slurs.

In one of the conversations, the gamer tells Maraza: “I wasn’t being racist to you, by the way, it was the other two.”“It’s crazy how some people will be more upset that they’re ‘labelled’ a racist, than they are about their friends hurling racist insults in their presence,” Maraza wrote.

He told the gamer about the abuse he allegedly received.

“One of your boys called me a c**t when I suggested a stray (sic). The other tried to insult me, and stopped short of calling me a n**ger. The other told him to stop being a p**sy and just say n**ger.”

“After that it was a free-for-all with some calling me dumb and Ebola infested, while others said I shouldn’t use up all my rights so soon because I didn’t have them 70 years ago, when my parents were still picking cotton,” he said, adding that he lost his cool and “threw a few yo-mamas”.

He told a follower that the anonymity of the platform makes many feel safe to “express who they truly are”.

This whole last weekend has been made up of highlights that majorly involved the arrest of comedy group, Bizonto. The four men who were brutally picked up and arrested by Police at Radio Simba where they usually host a show are accused of producing content that promotes sectarianism.

Ugandans have since flooded social media demanding for their release since they believe that whatever the comics voiced in their skit was nothing but the Now Stand up comedian Patrick Idringi ‘Salvado’ has met with President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni at State House to beg him to pardon his fellow comics, the Bizonto comedians.

This follows a police raid on a local radio station which ended in the arrest of four of their renowned staff, the “Bizonto” and charging them with capitalizing on their scripted works to promote sectarianism and tribal talk.

The theme for this year’s Durban July was Butterflies and Mzansi personalities did not disappoint when it came to their outfits despite the fact that this year’s horsing event was held without the usual glitz and glamour.

Masks were the real show stoppers when it came to this year’s fashion looks and since they have become the number one fashion accessory due all thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, designers made sure not to hold back.

Makeup artist Diva Cadach teamed up Durban designer Sistas Feka to create a mask that screamed butterflies, drama and all things extraordinaire. The masterpiece was pink in colour and had white pearls and butterflies on the sides.
The colour pink was chosen specifically as Divah wanted something that would allow him to come out of his shell and bring out the best of him, as he usually wears nudes and blacks.Diva Cadach is not the only personality who made sure to execute the theme, actress Linda Mtoba, Nolusindiso Mchunu, Krayzi K, Melody Molale and Nomsa Madida all came to play with their butterfly masks.

Speaking to ZAlebs, Diva Cadach explained that “being the larger than life personality, I was like let’s go all out because to me a butterfly is something that can transform anytime and it can be anything it wants to be anything it and that was my interpretation of the theme that you can be anything you want to be. Allow your inner self to shine.”
