However, flamboyant comedian Lasizwe Dambuza did not seem to share the same sentiments with Somizi.
"The fact that you could use that word so vulgar and loud! Speaks volumes ! As a member of the LGBTIQ+ community I am still highly offended by your choice of words... I’m praying for you man! HEAL bro!" Lasizwe reacted.
In a deleted thread, he then proceeds to cancel AKA.
