Read More: "This Season Is Scammy" Idols SA Viewers React To Top 12 Announcement
A petition to have her reinstated has amassed more than 3800 signatures in 18 hours. "DudlukaDlamini is a good and talented singer and was Unfairly judged, her last performance on idols season 18 was on fire, and she could've made it to the Top 12 season 18,"read the petition.
Zandile Mashaba who started the petition said "It's grossly unfair to have criteria and then choose to aggregate contestants instead of judging them on merit. The standard of pop culture in SA is not the same as in the US. We don't care if she's a size 8 or 16. All we care about is whether a contestant can sing or not and this child can saaang. Better than some of the kids in the top 12."
Where is the petition guys. We want Dludlu back and this sarafina what what to go home #IdolsSA

I still don't Believe that Dudlu and Donda are out on #IdolsSA. These competition it's losing its value every year coz of bias Judges.
