What happened to Zola 7?

Zola 7's life has been going downhill since people started seeing him less on television.

According to ZAlebs, he was even accused of drunk driving after an accident, only for people to be informed later that he had an epileptic seizure while driving.

Not only did Zola 7 struggle with poor health, but he also reportedly had money problems. The news outlet also reported that Zola's financial problems were so severe that Mzansi launched a fundraising campaign for the Lwandle hitmaker.

However, Zola 7 made everyone proud last year when he revealed that he bagged a cellphone deal with Mobicel South Africa. The announcement made everyone happy and excited about his future ventures.
