Nota Baloyi calls Shimza out for bagging another government gig

In related news, Briefly News reported that Nota Baloyi called out DJ Shimza after his venue landed him yet another cushy government gig. The music executive echoed the sentiments of many in Mzansi, who wondered why Shimza was landing so many tenders.

Nota accused Shimza of dating President Ramaphosa’s communications officer, Athi Geleba and using her to bag these contracts. He said:

“Shimza has been benefitting from political connections for years. He called me a moerskont but I don’t moerskont on taxpayer’s money. Khusela Diko was fired for allowing her husband to win PPE tenders and he later died of COVID19 complications. Athi’s boy toy will cost her.”
