Briefly News approached Ntokozo for a comment on the matter, and she responded by saying: "I have no comment."
Mbambo blue ticks Kelly Khumalo
The three-time SAMA winner blue-ticked Kelly Khumalo's rant and instead celebrated her wins in a new interview on eNCA. Mbambo remains unfazed, and she even quoted a scripture about God's faithfulness.
"Scripture says that he is faithful even when we are faithless and that's exactly what happened this past weekend."

Mzansi does not forgive Kelly's apology
Khumalo also made a homophobic slur and angered many people. In response to a troll, Kelly said:
“Sit down, Aunty, the day you decide whether you’re a man or a woman then we can talk."
She soon apologised but her apology was not accepted.
"Ngonile (I messed up) with my homophobic remarks ngiyaxolisa (I am sorry) that was uncalled for."
AKA wins big at the SAMAs
In a previous report from Briefly News, The South African Music Awards in 2023 honoured Mzansi musicians, including slain rapper AKA.
The hip-hop star passed away in February 2023 after being gunned down in Durban, and South Africans were shaken.
The South African Music Awards (SAMAs) were held on 18 November 2023 in Pretoria, and AKA got recognition for Mass Country.
