"Rhaaaaaaa nikhohlakele @Bujy how are you allowing a known abuser a platform to unpack le kaka! Everytime, Obie gets to 'rebrand' and continue abusing! Rhaaaaa I’m sick!"

@MoanerLeaser commented:

"Yoh! I’m watching the Bujy episode with Obie and I cannot believe the gaslighting coming out of that woman’s mouth! From ‘I come from an abusive & dysfunctional family’ to ‘she was antagonising me plus, I was supporting her financially’ yuh! yuh!"

@mathunzi_ said:

"Sadly we can’t tell people’s stories until they are ready to but both those guests are known abusers. And I mean ABUSE! Physical and otherwise! #Bujy #MacG It’s the laughter for me."

@locostandi defended Bujy. The tweep said:

"How do you guys expect Bujy and the podcast team to know abusers in your community when they aren’t even in the public eye? Do you think Bujy invited that person knowing of their past? La tena maan."

In other news, Briefly News reported that MacG criticised celebrities who practice "selective" cancel culture. The host of Podcast and Chill with MacG came out guns blazing in his latest episode posted on YouTube recently.

The star called out activists, especially Mzansi celebs, who cancel people who are not close to them but keep quiet when other celebs within their circle are being dragged on social media. MacG and his crew were called out by celebs such as Thando Thabethe and Rami Chuene when they were dragged for making insensitive jokes about the LGBTQI+ community.

"These celebrities jump on because they just wanna trend and jump on whatever outrage is happening at the time."

MacG slammed Thando Thabooty for not saying anything when DJ Fresh was trending a few weeks back when a woman accused him of raping her. MacG believes Thando should have called Fresh out because she's a GBV activist. He told her to be consistent. MacG even went as far as saying the stunner should stick to "posting nudes on Instagram" because her podcast numbers are "horrible".
