The media personality claimed that the shop would not allow her parents in because of their skin colour.
Sharing her plight on her Instagram page, Dlamini-Jones said:
“The situation in Durban is getting out of hand. My parents are not allowed to buy food in their residential area because they are black! Mom called me told me they have run out of food.”
Her post on Instagram Stories is no longer available and she has posted nothing further about this.
However, other social media users in the KZN area have made similar claims of being denied access to services due to their race.
The violent protests have increased racial tensions in some areas across the province, according to the provincial government. They have since called for calm with the mayor of Durban prohibiting the control of access points by regular citizens, according to the SABC.
Meanwhile Minnie Dlamini-Jones just came out of a battle of her own. The starlet revealed that she had Covid-19.
