Mzansi weighs in on Mazwai's sentiments

Netizens weighed in on the matter, with many agreeing and backing up Ntsiki's views with their own opinion. Although Mazwai never mentioned any names, many used Jackie Phamotse and the Kumalo legal battle as an example.

@Makwande02 said:

"No, we don’t provoke people, and when they retaliate, we call them economically powerful. We all have feelings, their kids were probably bullied for this at schools, and might have affected their performance. Let’s consider that also, not everything is about power."

@AltonNdlovu13 added:

"I think the bigger problem is the constitution. The Roman-Dutch law that we embrace that is against us in favour of the economically powerful."

"It's an age-old known secret. Money talks, and bulls* walks. Always has been and always will be."

@_KatlegoSemusa added:

"There’s justice for the rich, or politically connected, and then there’s justice for the poor or average individual, yet we’re told 'Justice for all'."

@AltonNdlovu13 argued:

"Not one day Ntsiks, think that conversation is long overdue. It should've been dissected yesterday."

@Boreka89 added:

"The biggest lie you ever believed is that 'The Law treats all equally'. By default, the law is meant to protect the rich from the poor!"

Ntsiki's run-ins with the law

Mazwai has had her share of court appearances. The most high-profile incident is between her, Penny Lebyane and DJ Fresh. The world-renowned DJ revealed in an interview that the court ordered Mazwai and Lebyane to pay him R200 000 for defaming him.

Mazwai told people to come correct after assuming she got sued for lying about DJ Fresh. She said she might expose uncomfortable truths, but she said she never tells a lie.
