Despite a number of threats, it did not take long for the socialite to take back control of her account. She took to Instagram to assure her followers that her account was once again safe in her hands with a statement that read:

"After much back and forth, I have since gotten my account back."

Many of her followers were suspicious of the statement and the ease with which she got her account back.

@zahzah716 commented:

"Please go live my love, we wanna be sure."

another follower @tshweleh added:

"isn't this a hacker we wanna see your face first"

This forced Zodwa Wabantu to post a video reassuring her fans that the statement was indeed hers.

Zodwa Wabantu trends day in and day out for her antics and skimpy dressing, but beneath that exterior is a soft and caring lady, determined to make a change.

Briefly News reported an old photo of Zodwa doing some charitable work that was shared on social media recently. In the picture, Zodwa was seen donating R10 000 to a physically disabled child.

In the snap, Zodwa was holding the young child and a huge cheque in her arms. The beautiful gesture left many looking at the exotic dancer a little differently.
