Babes Wodumo lawyers up against trolls teasing her about DJ Tira
Meanwhile, Briefly News reported that Babes Wodumo had enough of trolls and is tackling them via the legal route. The musician fell victim to trolling after taking to social media to wish DJ Tira a happy birthday on Wednesday, 24 August.
ZAlebs reported that Babes posted pictures with the media personality on her Facebook account but some of the comments became a little nasty. Some social media users said that Tira was Sponge’s real father and that he owed child support.
Babes, who usually lets the badmouthing slide, did not take these comments lying down. The publication reported that she said:
"All the time y'all say Tira is my baby daddy, what about his wife (Gugu Khathi), what is she saying about this sh*t you talk about. You guys make me mad sometimes, honestly. I you do not know what you want to say, leave please.”
Babes then threatened to take legal action against a few of the trolls.
