Anele Mdoda saved run over by car, claims Cassper's sneakers saved her ankle

In related news, Briefly News reported that a shaken Anele Mdoda has given props to Cassper Nyovest's sneakers after she survived a car accident this past Saturday. According to ZAlebs, the radio jock injured nothing more than her leg thanks to the Cassper Nyovest Drip 990 sneaker, which launched on 9 July this year.

Heading online, Mdoda hinted at the madness which befell her but kept from telling her followers the full story. She posted a full-length image and noted that she was required to wear a "moon boot" after the minor accident.

But speaking on her live radio show on Monday morning, Mdoda went into a tell-all mode, explaining it took place at OR Tambo International Airport after she had just landed after visiting relatives in the Eastern Cape.
