@innomatijane said:

“Imagine Scoop denies everything & serves Rea again after Bonang demanding 500K, because he actually doesn’t have proof Scoop told him and his friend is denying, that’s another 500K...& Scoop will probably serve him because he will want to protect himself from Bonang’s lawyers.”

@solohendukaa said:

“I feel for Scoop. The man snitched on him hard. Dude says that Scoop told them these Things OFF THE RECORD. in confidence. Now his relationship with B is probably compromised.”

@dumisane said:

“Now Scoop Makhathini has to fight legal battles against Bonang because he told some school kids that Bonang taught AKA drugs. Bonang must mop the N4 with Scoops face bruh.”

@sibu_mpanza said:

“He called out Scoop using his Home Affairs name. Unreal. He cited scoop. Harvard System. Date of gossip and everything.”

@thirsty_sphe said:

“If only Reagopane had listened to Bonang here with a free advice, he wouldn't be on 500K lmao. Scoop as well.”

Meanwhile Briefly News previously reported that Bonang has instituted a defamation lawsuit worth R500 000 against a local YouTuber who made damning allegations about her.

Rea Gopane is a YouTuber who is one half of 'The Rea and Black Step Podcast'. Earlier this month, the influencer made some accusations about Bonang having a drug habit and introducing AKA to cocaine.

He said that he was told this sensitive information by media personality Siyabonga Mkhwanzi, more popularly known as Scoop. He said:

“Scoop told us that AKA is on coke, and Bonang is the one that got him into cocaine. Scoop told us that, bro, after the interview we had him right here at this place.”

Bonang did not take kindly to the allegations and slapped Rea with a defamation suit worth R500 000. In the letter of demand, Bonang’s lawyers cite the financial demands as reparations for damaging her brand.
