Immediately, a handful of tweets jumped on Mphela‘s bandwagon to either speculate who he was referring to and or agreeing with him about the said supposed attention seeker. The more tweeps who tweeted Nota Baloyi‘s name was an enough giveaway to give the impression that Mphela was referring to Baloyi.

It did not take Baloyi long enough to subtweet Mphela‘s tweet and lambasted him for supposedly urging tweeps not to give him attention. In his tweet, Baloyi used rather unsavory and distasteful choice of words while eluding that he has Mphela on chokehold.
