Amanda Du Pont's emotional and triggering Instagram video where she accuses her ex-boyfriend Jub Jub of rape and attempted murder, encouraged other women to speak about their traumatic rape ordeals. Scores of women have gained the courage to speak out and one of them is apparently Jub Jub's cousin.
Bonokuhle Mtsweni claims to be Jub Jub's cousin and after watching Amanda's video, she saw that now is the right time to speak about this. She alleges that she was only 17 or 18 years when the incident happened.
The woman who is a musician did not go into detail about what had transpired when she was a teenager, but she responded to Amanda's call for women who have either been allegedly raped or abused by Mac G or Jub Jub.
To corroborate her claim, Bonokuhle shared a picture of her and Jub Jub and judging by his appearance, the picture was taken after he got released from prison.
Bonokuhle thanked Amanda for finally speaking out, "Thank you so much for standing up!!! Can more women DM her, tell her your story. Influence over power!!!! GUYS PLEASE," she pleaded.
The songstress revealed that she had spoken about this before, and when she is ready, she will speak about it again. She was understandably afraid of speaking out then but Bonokuhle is ready now, "I am so scared of coming out also...but I did what I had to do."
She has the support of Amanda Du Pont who said she is not surprised by this, "Well there you have it, not surprised. We starting a movement and will fight for our rights."
@AmandaDupont I think it's time...please check your DM.

Also alleging to have been raped by Jub Jub is TV host Masechaba Ndlovu. “I believe Amanda Dupont, Molemo Maarohanye (Jub Jub) raped me too. It happened in Mama Jakie’s house in Naturena. He was my boyfriend. I was a teenager. I was a virgin.” tweeted Masechaba.

Not only that, but a woman by the name of Refilwe Kumalo also accused Jub Jub of making advances towards her, "I worked closely with Molemo “jub jub” at MojaLove tv & experienced many sexual advances which were declined. His interview on Mac G’s podcast was reckless & he deserves the back lash. I believe you."
This lead to Moja Love distancing itself from the Uyajola 9/9 host, “Jub Jub conducted an interview on Podcast and Chill with MacG, which aired on Channel O yesterday, in his personal capacity,” Moja Love said.
“Moja Love was not part of the editorial of that interview and is not associated with the content thereof. As a channel, though we don’t condone any Gender Based Violence in any way and under any circumstances. As Moja Love, we have decided to suspend Jub Jub,” their statement reads.
I worked closely with Molemo “jub jub” at MojaLove tv & experienced many sexual advances which were declined.
His interview on Mac G’s podcast was reckless & he deserves the back lash.
