Nomzamo Mbatha is one of South Africa's most loved media personalities and for the longest time, she has always been in tune with what is happening around her.
The star and activist has positioned herself as a humanitarian and an advocate for Women & Children's rights, so when a snap appeared of her and Arthur Mafokate, a fan called her out on it and she immediately took responsibility.
Over the past year, Arthur was accused of allegedly assaulting his ex girlfriend, Cici.
Take a look at the conversation below:
This is what the fan tweeted
I’m ready to catch a block, but I’m very disappointed in you Sis. I was rooting for you yazi? @NomzamoMbatha. Awusahleki next to that woman beater. Yho hhayi sisi. https://t.co/jwbBnVsHgt
I was walking past, post the concert and looking for my manager when he greeted and whipped out his phone for a picture. Being polite I absent ‘mindedly’ obliged I’m definitely not a fan and I’m sorry I wasn’t present enough to say “FUCK OFF, no thanks.” https://t.co/aksdsQeWtC
A couple of days ago, Penny Lebyane accused Mafokate of alleged sexual grooming. In a video she posted, she said: “We can call Arthur, he can take us through what happened, that’s all good and well. But for me, Arthur is like a big bus or a poster that we constantly look at, meanwhile behind the bus and behind the poster, there’s a politician, a station manager, a programs manager, a woman producer, an agent, a spokesperson… somebody, who is an enabler in the big cult, whatever thing you want to call this thing where women and young men are exploited sexually for favours on sets, in newsrooms, in radio stations, in marketing departments.”
