Mzanzi split by Sol Phenduka's post

As Nhlanhla Lux is often trolled for being "revolutionary", some people took Sol's tweet as a joke and accused him of taking the situation lightly. Other peeps backed Phenduka, saying it was time for Nhlanhla to act heroic again.

@Mmandla77 said:

"Unfortunately, Nhlanhla Lux is all alone, and your attitude creates a problem because this is now about Nhlanhla Lux instead of the government, which is supposed to regulate and enforce laws."

@MalebanaCpt shared:

"Danki Sol. His intervention on this issue as a community leader is needed. We would like to see leaders like him attending to this issue."
